Martin. It has five hundred tributes, or two thousand persons. It is in
rebellion. One religious might attend to the instruction there. ... D.
We have notice of other islands, although we have not seen them,
and they remain yet to be allotted. Thus in the province of Cagayan
and the islands of Babuyanes, there are twenty-four thousand whole
tributes, or about ninety-six thousand souls. Notwithstanding that
most of it is in rebellion, a great part of it is being reduced to
the royal crown. In all the province there is not a single minister

wholly pacified. As to the administration of justice, in the part now
pacified or being pacified, the encomienda and government of Nueva
Segovia has it in charge. When all is pacified, more alcaldes-mayor
will be needed, and will be provided.
