Court sentence (transcription)

Court sentence judging João da Costa Ferreira, plaintiff, as the rightful successor of the chapel of Maria da Silveira, widow of Álvaro Penteado, founded in 1595, because he is the grandson of Maria de Alquevim and João Rodrigues, endowed by the institutor and first administrators. It condemns licenciado Nuno Rodrigues de Azevedo and his wife, Maria de Alquevim, defendants, to relinquish to the plaintiff the chapel's assets, improperly owned by them, with their income generated since the contested lawsuit.

Ferreira, João da Costa (flor.1656)
