Will

Will made by Manuel Favela da Costa in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual obligation of an yearly mass celebrated in the chapel where his grandfather, João de Arruda, was buried, in the monastery of S. André, Ponta Delgada, where his body should also be buried. He named his son António Favela as first administrator with the condition that he would chose one of his children to succeed him. However, the foundation of the entail depended on the conclusion of the partition deeds of his father Jorge da Mota and grandfather João de Arruda, from whose inheritances he expected to receive a sum. Finally, he also appointed his son António Favela as administrator of the entail founded by his wife Violante Mendes.
