Scope and content

Will made by João Pires Homem and his wife Catarina Dias, in which they ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of five masses celebrated every year in the church of Santa Cruz in Vila da Praia, Terceira island, where their bodies should be buried. They named one another as first administrator of the entail, and after both of them were deceased, they named their son Sebastião Martins. After the death of Sebastião, the succession should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. They ordered the administrators to make and keep record of the entail's inventory and disposed specifically that during the masses the prayer "De Fidelium Deus" should be prayed.
