Sept. 23. Parti Comuni, Consiglio X., v. x. p. 65. 22. Motion made in the Council of Ten and Junta.
Heretofore this Council gave possession of the Abbacy of the Trinity of Verona to the Rev. Prothonotary Casal, ambassador resident with us from the King of England, concerning which Abbacy his Lordship having been in dispute with the Rev. de Gambara, Bishop of Tortona, the “Rota” issued three concordant sentences in favour of said Gambara, who has since a long while urged us to put him in possession of said Abbacy in execution of said sentences, assigning him damages for the usufructs to be paid by said Rev. Casal.
Finally at the request of the Signory he is content to remit to the aforesaid Rev. Casal all the usufructs and costs incurred by him (Gambara) in this lawsuit, as proved by an instrument drawn up by the Secretary Antonio Corona, on the 14th instant, at the request of I). Paulo Vandin, LL.D., assignee and agent of said Rev. de Gambara, sent hither to this effect, and it is fitting to put an end to this matter.
Put to the ballot, that the possession of the aforesaid Abbacy given heretofore by the Council to the above-mentioned Rev. Casal, be revoked, and our governors of Verona to put in possession of the aforesaid Abbacy the afore-named Rev. de Gambara or his legitimate assignee, observing the clauses contained in the aforesaid instrument about remission to the Rev. Casal by the Rev. de Gambara of the usufructs, and of the costs incurred by him in said lawsuit.
Ayes, 24. No, 1. Neutrals, 3.
