_That the exemptions of soldiers be observed._ Sixth: The exemptions from arrest for debts incurred while a soldier, or from executions on weapons, horse, or anything else necessary and proper to the soldier, should be maintained.

_That the captains and commanders enjoy their privileges._ Seventh: The captains and commanders should be protected in their privileges, by which they have ordinary power and authority to govern and punish the soldiers, and in all matters pertaining to the soldiery; and these powers should be granted to and exercised by them.

_That the governor and captain-general have a guard of twenty-four halberdiers._ Eighth: Twenty-four halberdiers should be given to the governor and captain-general, to guard his person and maintain his authority, as do those of the captain of Malaca; for it is only by such display that due respect is inspired in the natives and foreigners, and their minds kept from planning revolts and treasons.

It also confers authority upon the person of him who represents the person of our king, and increases the honor and reverence paid to him.

To these guards should be given each month, from the royal exchequer, eight pesos and three fanegas of rice; and to the captain of the guard, twenty-five pesos.
