Synopsis: Valentin Rivera & Co. write to Lopez by the mediation of Captain Allen of the Neptune, who had been addressed to their house with loading of fish from Newfoundland and arrived on November 15. The good conduct of the captain encouraged Rivera & Co. to procure a freight for London. Despite the difficulties to get it, they succeeded. They offer their services to Lopez and inform him about the goods that abound in Barcelona’s province (raisins, wines, brandies, nuts, cork, salt, etc.), as well as the demand in the market for wheat and rice.
