A very interesting handwritten copy of the Compromiso da Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Macau, containing the commitment in beautiful handwriting, with the titles of each chapter and capital letters in gold ink, followed by texts for the oaths provided for in the commitment, with several autograph signatures of inaugurations , as well as, at the end, a “Collections Commitment”, with the autograph signature of the then Provider, which regulates the reception of orphaned women and widows from the city of Macau.
The Compromiso da Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Macau was issued in 1627, but apparently it was only printed for the first time in 1834. The Misericórdia de Macau was founded in 1568, but only in the 17th century did it see its Compromiso, that is, its regulations, duly written and approved.
