Letters to Felipe III. Pedro de Acuña; July 15 and 19. Decrees regarding religious orders. Felipe III, and others; February-July. Grant to the Jesuit seminary at Cebú. Felipe III; December 31. Source: All of these documents are obtained from MSS. in the Archivo general de Indias, Sevilla.

The original MS. is also in Sevilla; pressmark, "Simancas Filipinas; descubrimientos, descripciones y gobierno de Filipinas; est. 1, caj. 1, leg. 1, 23." It was published, ut supra, pp. 357-359. There are two copies in the Archivo, one of which is incorrectly endorsed "1569."

The authentic document, with several others relating to Espejo's brief career, was not published in full until 1871, and even then attracted little attention because it was not translated and because the Coleccion de Documentos del Archivo de Indias is not accessible to every one. But the publication of 1871 was by no means the first printed version of Espejo's relations.

Letter from a Chinese official to Acuña. March. Letters from Augustinian friars to Felipe III. Estevan Carrillo, and others; May 4-June 20. Letter to Felipe III. Antonio de Ribera Maldonado; June 28. Source: All of these documents are obtained from MSS. in the Archivo general de Indias, Sevilla.
