Preliminary Note: The account of the first two Cortes is drawn largely
from notes made by James A. LeRoy from Diario de las sessiones de las
Cortes generales y extraordinarias, and other sources, and kindly
sent by him to the Editors. For the first Cortes see also Montero
y Vidal, Historia general, ii, pp. 388-390, 392, 396-398, 400-409,
411-413,422-435, and Guia oficial de España, 1813, pp. 21, 22, where
the Philippine deputies are named. For the second Cortes, see also
Montero y Vidal, ut supra, ii, pp. 444-452, 457-462, 476-481. For
the third Cortes, see Montero y Vidal, ut supra, ii, pp. 544, 545,
552-560, 563-573; and Filipinas y su representacion en Cortes (Madrid,
February 8, 1836), which although published anonymously is by Camba.
