[30] Champa (Chanpa) was the Malay name of Cambodia (Camboja); it was, however, first applied to a Malay settlement on the eastern coast of the Gulf of Siam. Later, the province of Champa was a part of the kingdom of Anam, and is now part of French Cochin-China. [31] _Veinte e cuatros_, literally "twenty-fours," aldermen or regidors in the town councils of certain towns in Andalusia. [32] A decree of like import, and couched in exactly the same language, was issued at the same place and on the same date _in re_ the bishopric of Nueva-Cáceres. This decree is published in _Doc. Inéd. Amér. y Oceania_, xxxiv, pp. 99--101. [33] Contract for disposing of goods by wholesale. [34] As early as 1550 a decree was issued that, "when possible, schools should be established for the instruction of the Indians in the Castilian language" (_Recop. leyes Indias_, lib. vi, tit. i, ley xviii); but apparently this was not fully enforced. [35] See the document here referred to, at the end of _Vol_. V, and completed in _Vol_. VI. [36] Figueroa, "before leaving Iloilo, made his will, endowing the Jesuit college at Manila with two thousand pesos of income; and directed that in case his daughters should die their inheritance should pass to that college of San José" (Montero y Vidal's _Piratería en Mindanao_, i, p. 140). [37] See _Discovery of the Solomon Islands_ (Hakluyt Soc. publications, 2d series, nos. 7, 8; London, 1901); this contains Mendaña's and other narratives of his expeditions in the southern Pacific Ocean. [38] A title given among Mahometans to certain persons of religious profession. [39] This and other italic headings to paragraphs in this document are, in the original MS., marginal notes in another handwriting--probably made by a clerk, for convenience of reference. [40] When Figueroa began the conquest of Mindanao (1596) he was accompanied thither by two Jesuits--Juan del Campo, a priest; and Gaspar Gómez, a lay brother. The former was carried off by a fever, dying on August 10, 1596, at the age of thirty years, after little more than a year's stay in the islands. In his place, Juan de Sanlúcar and Pedro de Chirino accompanied Ronquillo's expedition in the following year. Sanlúcar entered the Jesuit order in 1570, and came to the Philippines in time to join the Mindanao expedition; he died at Palápag, April 26, 1612. Pedro de Chirino entered the Jesuit order in 1580, and arrived at Manila ten years later. He died there on September 16, 1635, at the age of seventy-eight. His noted work, _Relacion de las Islas Filipinas_ (Roma, 1604), will be presented in subsequent volumes of this series. La Concepcion says of him (_Hist. de Philipinas_, v, p. 198): "A man of great industry and of studious habits, who devoted to study and books all the time which was not occupied by his ministry to souls." [41] _La Caldera_, "the Caldron"--a port in the extreme south of Mindanao, not far from Zamboanga; its primitive name, Cauite.
