| Resumo: | This archival memorandum, dated to the late nineteenth or early twentieth century and held within the ‘Section for the East — File No. 1254 — Tápel’, concerns a jurisdictional dispute over ecclesiastical patronage (*padroado*) in the Kingdom of Tuncal, involving two bishops—one French and one Spanish—whose appointments were contested by the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith (*Propaganda Fide*), the Cathedral Chapter (*Conovo*), and the collegiate chapter (*Lecto*). The document asserts the sovereign’s territorial right of patronage over ecclesiastical benefices in Tuncal, a right confirmed by Pope Pius VI, and urgently requests definitive canonical intervention by the Holy See. It calls for an authoritative papal decree, vested with full canonical faculties, to resolve the dispute unambiguously and prevent schism, administrative disorder, and pastoral ambiguity in the region’s diminished ecclesiastical structure. The memorandum is filed under the ‘East’ section, specifically within records pertaining to the Dioceses of the East and Cochin, indicating its relevance to colonial-era ecclesiastical administration in South Asia. Researchers will find this document valuable for analysing intersections of royal patronage, papal authority, missionary governance, and inter-episcopal conflict in a contested colonial ecclesiastical jurisdiction.
