Documents produced by the entail.

Will made by padre Vasco Rodrigues Cabreira in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual obligation of 250 masses celebrated every year in the church of N. Sra. da Conceição de Arronches, where a lamp should be kept perpetually lit. Those masses should be celebrated with two special prayers, the "Inclina por macho e de quae sumus por femea" and "Fidelium por muitos". He named his brother Fernando Rodrigues Pontes as first administrator during his lifetime. And after his death, the properties entailed to the chapel should be splitted in two parts that should be given to his nephews Duarte Rodrigues and Manuel Vaz, who would share the administration of this chapel with the condition that each of them would order the perpetual celebration of 125 masses every year. From there on the succession of each branch of the administration should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. In the lack of descendants from Duarte or Manuel, the administration would be handled to the heirs of the other, and in the lack of descendants from both, it should be handled to padre Gaspar da Ponte during his lifetime and to the Misericórdia after his death. No administrator could ever marry a person of "infected race".
