Minor corrections were made for clarity and readability, such as correcting "chen" to "them", "streasury" to "Treasury", "cloches" to "clothes", "Compradore" is kept as it is likely a historical term, "xpril" to "April", and "av" is removed as it seems to be an incomplete or incorrect word. The text has been reordered for better sense, and obvious OCR errors have been corrected.
