3 According to Fr. José Pou y Martí, O. F. M., “Origines de la Provincia de San Antonio en el Brasil,” Archivo Ibero-Americano, I (Mayo-Junio, 1914), the original of this document, a folleto of 42 folios, is sewed into Volume II of Curia Discalceatorum et Recollectorum, Num. 32, A. This volume today is found in the official archive of the Order of Friars Minor in Rome. Fr. Pou y Martí gives a résumé of Manuel da Uha’s report in the above-mentioned article. To the best of our knowledge, however, this document has never been published in its entirety, nor has the section on the Mission of São Miguel de Una been published.
