Court sentence (transcription)

Court sentence judging Manuel Carneiro, minor, plaintiff with his mother, Antónia Soares, his tutor, as the rightful successor of the entail and chapel of Padre Manuel da Veiga, because he is the son of the late Paulo Carneiro, first born child of Manuel Carneiro da Veiga, last administrator, and condemning Manuel de Vilalobos, defendant, to relinquish to him the entail and its assets, with their income generated since the contested lawsuit. The defendant took possession of the entail after the death of Manuel Carneiro, his grandfather, taking advantage of the absence of Paulo Carneiro and accusing him of not being married to the plaintiff's mother, so Manuel Carneiro is illegitimate, and of being sentenced to death. It is proven that these accusations are not valid.

Soares, Antónia (flor.1659)
