Will made by Beatriz Garcia Mendes, in which she ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of one daily mass celebrated in the chapel of N. Sra. do Rosário, in the mother church of Alter do Chão. She named her nephew padre Cristóvão da Silva as first administrator, during his lifetime, and her nephew Vasco Garcia Leitão after his death. Vasco would be succeeded by her nephew João Nunes do Carvalhal and his descendants after him. If her bloodline was extinguished, then the administration would be given to the Misericórdia of Alter do Chão, and if they could not inherit it, then the poor people assisted by the Misericórdia would have it, because she made clear that no King or Governor could ever succeed on the administration in case that it became vacant. She also freed an enslaved woman named Maria and named her administrator of an entailed forrageal that had a perpetual mass obligation of four masses celebrated every year. After the death of Maria, the administration should be given to the same administrator of the entail and chapel that she founded.
