All the above were already priests. Those who came as choristers are the following:
Fray Manuel de Escobedo, deacon, of the convent of Nuestra Señora, of Atocha.
Fray Juan de Astudillo, deacon, of the convent of Santo Thomas, of Madrid.
Fray Pedro Humanes, deacon, of the convent of San Pablo, of Sevilla.
Fray Diego Constantino, of the convent of Atocha.
Fray Martin de Oña y Ocadiz, of the convent of Burgos.
And Fray Francisco Novarin, an Asturian, son of Santo Domingo, of Mexico.
And two religious lay-brothers: the first, Fray Francisco de Toledo, son of the convent of Guadalaxara; and the second, Fray Vicente de el Castillo, son of the convent of Burgos. In addition there were two others, who as above said remained in Mexico with the father vicar, Fray Francisco Villalba, who could not return to the province because of his sentence of exile.
[With that band also comes one Fray Domingo Mezquita, who had first gone to the Philippines in 1671, but after some years residence there had returned secretly to Spain. Moved again by the will of God, he returns to the islands where he dies after some years. Those missionaries are detained in Mexico for two years waiting for a ship. Finally a ship is bought at Acapulco in which is sent the royal situado, the Dominican religious, a mission band of sixty Recollects, and a few soldiers. After a voyage fraught with danger, for the ship is old and rotten, the harbor of Cavite is finally reached June 28, and as soon as all the cargo and passengers are safely off, it founders. The much-needed missionaries are distributed among the Philippine and Chinese missions.]
