Notes

  • -  The King wants to know how many parochial benefices there are in the archdiocese, how much each one pays per year, where they are and what is the nature of the terrain, whether they minister to Spaniards or Indians, how many people there are in them, and what worthy ecclesiastical persons there are available for appointment to the benefices. He charges the archbishop to send a report on this to the Council of the Indies so that presentations can be made which will be good for the service of God and the King.
