Royal officers accounted for 123 pesos and one tomín arising from a debt owed by Pedro de Ursúa. The debt was linked to Diego, an enslaved man reportedly brought to the province by Lope de Aguirre and sold by royal justice. The account renders Diego’s forced sale as public revenue, exposing how colonial administration converted a person into a fiscal asset.
