registros de oficio; reales ordenes dirigidas a las autoridades del

distrito de dicha Audiencia; anos 1635 a 1672; est. 105, caj. 2,

leg. 2, libro 4, folio 122 verso" we take the following endorsement:

"To Don Diego Faxardo, whom your Majesty has appointed governor of

the Filipinas Islands, advising him of certain things touching the

religious of the Order of St. Augustine, which require a remedy;

so that he may know them, and take what measures are advisable, in

it." This transcript states also that the decree was signed by the

members of the Council.]
