Letter #5797

Alfonso de VALDÉS to Ioannes DANTISCUS
[Ghent (Gandavum)?], [shortly after 1531-04-09]

English register:

Valdés informs Dantiscus that he can keep the letter from Loffredo he sent him, because he has already replied to it and passed on all the matters to be dealt with. He was busy throughout the holidays and hasn’t finalized his tasks yet, which is why he doesn’t know when he would come to see Dantiscus.
