Will (extract)

Will (extract) by which D. Henrique de Noronha established an entail with all his available assets after the fulfilment of his legacies, indicating that he would appoint an heir later. He declared that that entail could never be annexed to the one established by his father, determining that it would always be transmitted to the second born son of its administrator. His successors were obligated to support the celebration of a daily perpetual mass in the convent of S. Francisco of Alenquer, another one in the church of Misericórdia of Lisboa and another in the church where the institutor's body would be buried. He asked the executors of his will, D. Marcos de Noronha, his brother, Jerónimo de Melo, his brother-in-law, and Luís de Miranda Henriques to buy a chapel on his behalf, preferably in a convent of capuchin friars or of discalced carmelites. He also demanded the elaboration of a tombo of the entailed properties.
