Codicil (extract)

Codicil (extract) by which D. Mariana de Noronha adds a perpetual mass for her soul to the chapel of her uncle, D. Cristóvão de Sousa, entailing to it 25 000 reis of revenue from the same houses entailed by her uncle. She donates these houses to her nephew, Manuel de Saldanha, who, at the time of her death, shall appoint the next administrator of the chapel.

Noronha, Mariana de (flor.1612-1662)

Sentence

Sentence judging the embargos set by cónego Manuel de Saldanha, executor of D. Mariana de Noronha's will. It is proven that he isn't forced to present the titles of the quinta da Portela because, although D. Mariana de Noronha, in a previous will, had bequeathed it to him with an obligation of a daily mass, she had changed her mind and given it to the condessa da Ericeira, in her codicil. She had given to Manuel Saldanha, instead, the houses entailed to the chapel of D. Cristóvão de Sousa, adding to them the obligation of a daily mass. The houses are considered entailed, Manuel de Saldanha is appointed as administrator, and the will of D. Mariana de Noronha is considered fulfilled.
