In 1646, a Dutch vessel, putting in to Majorca, was seized by the inquisitor, who imprisoned the captain and crew, but the royal officials took possession of the property in spite of inquisitorial protests, leading to an angry contest that lasted for years, the inquisitor refusing to obey repeated royal orders to remove the excommunications which he had lavished, until commanded to do so, March 18, 1649, by the Suprema. Finally, all that the tribunal obtained of the spoils was two hundred ducats to defray the maintenance of the prisoners,—Archivo de Simancas, Inq., Lib. 38, fol. 26, 71.
