Some historians and chronologists say that Dr. Antonio de Morga acted as governor _ad interim_ from his entrance into Manila, June 11, 1595, until Tello's arrival July 14, 1596, but he merely fulfilled the duties of his office of lieutenant-governor. In his letters after his arrival, and in his book, he distinctly states that Luis Perez Dasmarinas was governor. Tello says in a letter of July 17, 1596 (see _Vol_. IX, pp. 274-277), "In respect to the person of Don Luys Perez Dasmarinas, whom I found acting as governor." Consequently Morga is given no place in this list. _Francisco de Tello de Guzman_--Native of Sevilla, and knight of Order of Santiago; treasurer of India House of Trade; appointed governor and president of Audiencia, which he is ordered to reestablish, by royal decree, November 26, 1595; enters Manila, July 14, 1596; martyrdom of Franciscans in Japan, February 5, 1597; arrival of first archbishop, May 1598; Audiencia reestablished, May 8, 1598; arrivals of first suffragan bishops, 1598-1600; Moro invasions, 1599-1600; Morga's fight with Oliver van Noordt, December 14, 1600; Jesuit seminary of San Jose founded, 1601; term as governor, July 14, 1596-May, 1602; death in Manila, April 1603.
