Even less dressed than I thought!John Sent from my iPhone "tipo de capa curta e com enfeites, em voga no século XIX" dicionario Porto Editora "Tipo de capa mourisca, mais curta e mais enfeitada, usada no séc. XIX." Houaiss & priberam It is a piece of clothing: a short cape with some decoration which was fashionable in the 19th century. So your character was on the run with just his pants and a short cape
happy new year

Please do give me your best interpretations of this phrase from a late-19th century document. It relates to someone accused of running away from Bombay moneylenders, with just his pants on, but what does judia (Jew??) mean in this instance? It's obviously a derisive phrase.
take care, selma
