Will

Will made by Ana Camelo in which she ordered the foundation of two entails. The first entail would have a perpetual mass obligation of six masses celebrated every year in the mother church of Alegrete, and would be administrated by Salvador, her nephew, son of Miguel da Costa, and by his descendants. The administrators of the entail would have also the obligation of giving one alqueire of oil every year to keep a lamp in the church of Rei Salvador always lit. The second entail, composed of an olive grove ("olival de António Durão"), would have a perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year and would be administrated by her uncle João da Costa and his eldest daughter after him. The administrator of this entail had to give half of an alqueire of oil to keep the lamp of the chapel of Calvário of Alegrete always lit.
