Remarks

P. Avelino de Jesus da Costa referes to this fragment as: "Caixa 279, 134 – Número 9 – Tombo de Salvador de Padreiro, 1548" (Salvador de Padreiro is located 40 km north of Braga). However, there are no visible traces on the fragment (e.g. later hand inscriptions or library stickers) to justify this attribution.
