[149] A royal degree of 1619 disposed that "every one who sows and tills twenty-five _fanegas_ of land each year, may use a coach." [150] The _estufa_ (literally _stove_) was a form of family-coach. The _furlon_ is described in an old dictionary as "a coach with four seats and hung with leather curtains."
