designs with which the beautiful sky of these islands inspires them. This news has been anticipated, because it is so recent; but the history only relates matters to 1669, so that the third part [45] will begin with the provincial chapter celebrated on May 11 of the said year, when the reverend father Fray Juan Camacho was elected provincial.

CHAPTER XXXV Of the second election to the provincialate of father Fray Gerónimo Medrano,and the life and death of Archbishop Don Hernando Guerrero. As there are no events worth mentioning in the year 1640, outside of what we have noticed in the prosecution of the war with the Sangleys, let us pass to the year 1641. On the nineteenth of April of that year was celebrated the provincial chapter, which was presided over by father Fray Juan de Trejo, [46] the senior definitor of the former chapter. Father Fray Gerónimo de Medrano was elected for the second time as provincial. The definitors elected were father Fray Juan Gallegos, Fray Pedro Mexia, [47] Fray Diego de Ordás, and Fray Diego Tamayo. [48] The visitors were fathers Fray Felipe Tallada and Fray Cristóbal Enríquez.
