In 1570 the Florida subsidy was separated from that of the Indies Fleet, though Florida support remained a charge on Tierra Firme, along with a new subsidy for Havana [Note 2: Cedulas to the royal officials of Tierra Firme and Vera Cruz, both dated 2/18/1574]
...The 23,436-ducat total that the officials of Tierra Firme were told to supply yearly beginning in 1571consisted of 18,336 ducats to ration 150 men and 1,800 ducats for powder and ammunition, and 1,500 ducats for “troop commodities.” [Note 4: Cedula to the royal officials of Tierra Firme 11/15/1571]
