London. 1873. 18s 6d ConcERNING BuENos AyRES. [368] IBARRA (Dr. Alvaro de). Informe en derecho por el illmo. Sor. Don Fray Chris- toval de Mancha, Obispo de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, en defensa de la libertad Ecclesiastica, contra los estatutos, que promulgo Don Jacinto de Laris, Cavallero del Orden de Santiago, Governador del Puerto de Buenos Aires. 7 leaves. Folio. (No place, 1649). £6 6s On August 5, 1649, the Governor of Buenos Ayres, Don Jacinto de Laris, published a Statute making it unlawful for the Convents or Religious Communities to buy up the various estates in the neighbourhood, on the grounds that it prevented the entrance of the ordinary settlers, on whom the safety of the Province depended. In this present document the Bishop repudiates that Edict, as being contrary to the Ecclesiastical liberty, and beyond the due power of the Governor to authorize, and threaténs to have him excommunicated. It is interesting that the Governor had been particularly careful to arrange for the posting up, in various parts of Buenos Ayres, of each copy of his edict, to be carefully witnessed by several leading citizens.
