Will by which D. Francisco de Castro, bispo da Guarda, inquisidor-geral, do Conselho do Rei, expresses his wish to be buried in the convent of S. Domingos de Benfica, founding a chapel to bury his ancestors, with an obligation of three daily masses, according to what was established in a previous bond. He bequeaths to the entail of Penha Verde, founded by his grandfather, D. João de Castro, and which will be inherited by his niece, D. Mariana de Noronha, a public debt instrument of 200 000 reis, set in the Câmara of Lisboa, with the obligation of 20 000 reis of masses in the convent of Santa Cruz da Serra de Sintra, of which the entail's administrator is the patron. He also entails to it the beard of D. João de Castro, which he had pawned to pay for the construction of the Diu fortress, and for which he had made a reliquary. He bequeaths a public debt instrument of 120 000 reis to the Chapter of the See of Guarda, for two chaplaincies. He mentions several deeds, certificates and inventories of properties
