Court sentence

Court sentence by which the petition submitted by the religious of the convent of Nossa Senhora do Carmo de Lisboa and the motions presented by the count of Faro, executor of his mother D. Luísa Cabral’s will, are judged. The priests asked for the amounts spent in his mother’s funeral and for the public debt instrument of 40 000 réis to ensure the pious obligations at the convent for her soul, for her husband’s, D. Dinis de Faro, and for her late son’s, D. João de Faro. It mentions Luísa Cabral’s will, approved on 1604-07-20, a contract she established with the priests in 1614 and the payment she made, and a codicil where she made some amends to her will. The charges and payment established and to accomplish after her death should have been approved by her son since she gave him all her properties in his lifetime to form an entail, according to a contract of dowry and institution. Thus, the count of Faro is not obliged to give a public debt instrument of 40 000 réis to the convent, but he must pay the funeral and other charges' expenses, which are detailed.
