eficed secular. The village called Parian, the alcaiceria where the Chinese merchants and workmen live--most of that people being infidels, and few of them Christian--are in charge of religious of St. Dominic. This place is close to the walls. There is a small village next the walls called San Juan, which is in charge of the discalced religious of St. Augustine. Another village, somewhat farther from the walls than the said San Juan, and called Malatte, is in charge of the calced Augustinian fathers. Another very near village, called Dilao, is where some Japanese Christians live, separated from the natives; and their administration, as well as that of the natives, is in charge of religious of St. Francis. There is another small village contiguous to that of Dilao, called San Miguel, which has a house of retreat for the Japanese women who are exiled from their country because they follow our holy faith. They, as well as the natives of the said village, are in charge of religious of the Society of Jesus. All of the said villages, so far as the secular affairs are concerned, belong to the jurisdiction of the alcalde-mayor of Tondo, who lives in the village of that name on the other side of the river. That village is densely populated with natives and Chinese mestizos who are in charge of calced religious of St. Augustine. Still nearer the river is the village of Milongo [sic; sc. Binondo] which is almost wholly composed of Chinese mestizos. It is in charge of religious of St. Dominic.

On the same shore of the river is a village named Santa Cruz, composed of married Christian Chinese, who are in charge of religious of the Society of Jesus.

Another, called San Pedro, is in charge of religious of the Society of Jesus. Another, called Guadalupe, is in charge of calced Augustinians. Another, called Pasic, is in charge of calced Augustinian religious. The village of San Matheo is in charge of religious of the Society of Jesus.
