DC. V), pp. 950-968. Our translation is made from a copy of this book in the Library of Congress. NOTES [1] Evidently a reference to the memoir of Fray Juan Plasencia upon the customs of the Tagal natives (_Vol_. VII. pp. 173-196), which was long used as a guide by Spanish magistrates and officials in their dealings with the Indians. [2] A counsellor-at-law appointed by the supreme court to make the briefs of the causes to be tried; he reads them before the court, after they have been first examined and approved by the parties concerned. [3] The reference or act of delivering written judicial proceedings to the other party, in order that, on examination of them, he may prepare the answer. [4] Inserted among these decrees is a copy of the account written by Fray Juan de Plasencia, O.S.F., of the customs of the Tagal Indians--a document presented in vol. VII of this series; also (unsigned and undated, but probably by the same writer) a paper entitled, "Remarks on the customs which the natives of Pampanga formerly observed in their lawsuits." [5] _Cuarteles_: referring to the cost of quartering soldiers on the citizens. [6] So in the official transcript from the original MS.; but apparently an error for _bar--i.e., bahar_, which is an Arabic weight, computed in the Moluccas at about five hundred and ninety pounds (Crawfurd's _Dictionary_, p. 103). [7] The Spanish translation of this letter is written on the back of the letter itself. [8] The words in brackets throughout this letter are conjectural readings.
