Dowry deed by which D. João de Meneses e Vasconcelos, Conde de Penela, and Lopo Soares, membro do Conselho do Rei, gave dowries to their son and daughter, D. Afonso and D. Guiomar, who were going to marry. Lopo Soares, who was about to embark for Índia, promised to give to D. Afonso, in the next 5 years, 1 conto de réis, pensions appraised at 100 000 réis and the position of Capitão dos Ginetes. He also left the entail he had established with his late wife to his daughter, D. Guiomar, entailing to it the third part of his assets. The entail was already composed of a farmstead ("quinta de Albufeira") and a public debt instrument of 200 000 réis. He revoked a clause of the entail's institution, exempting its administrators of the obligation of entailing the third part of his assets to it. However, they had to use the institutor's family name and coat of arms. If D. Afonso and D. Guiomar were not able to leave descendants, the entail's succession would be determined taking into account the foundation deed of the "morgadio de Soalhães", administrated by the Conde de Penela. D. João de Meneses e Vasconcelos committed himself to give 120 000 réis, each year, to the couple. Contains copies of 5 warrants and a letter of attorney.
