Will

Will made by Francisco Álvares, cavaleiro da Ordem de Avis, in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail composed of several properties in Nisa, with a perpetual pious obligation of two trinitarians of masses celebrated every year and one mass celebrated in every feast of the Virgin Mary, as long as the world lasted. All these masses should be celebrated over his grave on the mother church of Nisa with the prayers inclina Domine and Deus que nos patrem et matrem et Filius Deus said in every mass, accompanied by organ music. To administrate it he named his brother Domingos Álvares, with the condition that he would appoint one of his children to succeed him with the same conditions. The administrators should arrange two separate books, one for the record of this will and of all entailed properties and the other for the record of the pious legacies, that would be subjected to regular account by the Ouvidor do Mestrado de Avis or the Provedor das Capelas or the local magistrates of Nisa.
