He would always be succeeded, preferably, by the eldest male heir, and if he died without children, the administration should be transmitted to his brother Cristõvão Borges da Silveira or Estêvão Borges da Silveira. If none of them had children of their own, then the closest relative should have the entail. All administrators that succeed on the entail were obliged to annex their own reserved portions. The entail could not be administrated by clergyman nor anyone who marries people of jewish descendancy. Finally, they also appointed Francisco Carvalhal as administrator of the entails founded by his grandmother Maria Borges Albarca, his aunt Isabel do Carvalhal, his grandfather, João Dias de Carvalhal, his great-grandfather Francisco Dias de Carvalhal, his great-grandmother, Catarina Neta, and his aunt Dorotéa Nunes.
