2- Notebook of poetry by Maria Fernando (de Castro?). 5 pages. Cover with embroidery.
3- Copy entitled A Voz da Razao (The Voice of Reason) by José Anastacio da Cunha.

The main aim was to settle his affairs after his death and to distribute his property. As his widow had died, it had to be decided who would inherit his fortune.
6- Letter dated 28 August 1690 concerning the establishment of the Santa Casa da
Misericórdia in Mombasa (Kenya). The Holy House of Mercy, a very important charitable organisation that still exists.
7- Letter dated 5 January 1727 from the brothers of the Santa Casa da Misericórdia in Macao to the brothers of the Santa Casa da Misericórdia in Goa, India.
8- Two-page legal document, dated 1889, on line paper with a revenue stamp.
