Code entry
The income from quitrents and titles, and then of the three reales per beef that Governor Marquez Cabrera imposed, was applied at first entirely to the castillo construction. Later, 55 pesos a year, and then 100, was spent on the celebration of saints days dear to the King's heart. (Frco Rocha and Frco Cigarroa, March 20, 1685; Consejo, October 6, 1690, in reply to Three Ranchers' letter of August 28, 1689; King [Charles II] to Governor Quiroga y Losada, August 31, 1688; Alo Leturiondo, August 7, 1697.) (Bushnell MM)
