Will of Maria Pereira, single woman and daughter of Sebastião Pereira and Francisca Novais. Maria orders her body to be buried in the convent of S. Francisco in Porto. She entails the estates she possesses in Cerrais, Terras de Basto, Guimarães and Feira, with the obligation of supporting a weekly mass to be celebrated in the closest altar to her grave. As first administrator, the testator appointed her cousin Luís Novais, son of Vicente Novais and Branca da Silva, to be succeeded by his first-born son or daughter, in the absence of a male heir, and excluding clerics and illegitimate children from the administration. If Luís Novais died without descent, the entail was to pass to the person who administered the entail of Vicente Novais and Branca da Silva, uncles of the testator and parents of Luís Novais. Maria also left instructions regarding her illegitimate sister, Beatriz Pereira, ordering that she enter a convent and that the necessary payments be made from Maria Pereira's inheritance.

Followed by the approval deed (1586-05-31, fls. 55-56).
