338.11.1

After agreeing to the compromise, the Reverend Father Friar Diogo do Sacramento disavowed it, and went off to San Thomé, leaving the matter undecided, as afterwards appeared. Thereupon the brother who had been deputed from Madras decided also to withdraw. On going to kiss the Lord Patriarch's hand and ask for his documents, he had difficulty in obtaining a vague reply to the effect that, having been once presented, they must remain in the chancery of his Excellency. With that he came away without the Lord Patriarch saying a single word to him about the dispute. As to it, all he said to his auditor, Salinos Marianos, when the brother asked for his documents, was that, in order to avoid further differences between the confraternities, he would not give them back.
