Law XLVII

The governor of Filipinas shall send the viceroy of Nueva España a

report of the apportionment of toneladas that he shall make, and what

is to be laden in the ships of that commerce. The viceroy shall send

the former a report of the money that shall be sent in accordance with

the ordinance. The latter shall pay consideration and attention to

the reports sent him by the said governor, so that he may adjust more

equitably and circumspectly the licenses of this kind that he shall

give. [Felipe III--San Lorenzo, August 19, 1606; Madrid, June 4, 1620.]
