pages bearing the royal seal and stamp
with the customary proxy signatures of

this old book, which dates back to 1574,
has a drawing of the arms of the city
of Manila, together with the king's
■gracious decree that the city might as-

"my noble and alwayB leal city" as

quaint old flourish and sweep, the de-

frontispiece was carefully drawn ana
