 VI, and the Treaty of Tordesillas," in Canad. Roy. Soc. Trans., 1899, sec. ii, pp. 467–546; and Harrisse's Diplomatic History of America (London, 1897).

Treaty of Tordesillas (June 7, 1494).—The original MS. of this document is in the Seville archives—pressmark, "Simancas—Bulas; est. 1, caj. 1, leg. 1." It is also found in the Torre do Tombo of Lisbon—its pressmark being "Gaveta 17, maço 2, no. 24;" there is another copy—pressmark "Gaveta 18, maço 2, no. 2 "—apparently a duplicate of the former. The text of the treaty is published in G. F. de Martens's Traités de l'Europe, Supplément (Gottingue, 1802), i, pp. 372–388; Navarrete's Col. de viages, ii, pp. 130–143 (147–162, 2nd ed.); Alguns documentos, pp. 69–80; Calvo's Recueil de traités, i, pp. 16–36; and ''Doc. inéd. Amér. y Oceania'', xxxvi, pp. 54–74. Our translation is made from the version in Alguns documentos, as that most closely following the original; and in foot-notes are indicated some of the variations of Navarrete's text from that in Alguns documentos.

Compact between the monarchs of Spain and Portugal (April 15, 1495).—The original MS. of this document is in the Seville archives "Patronato Real." We translate from Navarrete, ut supra, ii, pp. 170–173 (192–195, 2d ed.). It is published also in ''Doc. inéd. Amér. y Oceania'', xxxviii, pp. 336–341.

Papal Bull, Præcelsæ (Nov. 3, 1514).—The original of this bull exists in Torre do Tombo, Lisbon—pressmark, "Maço 20 de bullas, no. 18;" it is written on parchment, and covers twenty folios. It is printed in full in Corpo diplomatico portuguez (Lisboa, 1862), i, pp. 275–298; and a brief synopsis is given (in Portuguese) in Alguns documentos, p. 366.
