Scope and Contents
The volume is divided into two halves: an inventory and bound receipts. The inventory provides a listing of each of Madre Doña Juana Maria de la Fuente's belongings and are categorized according to the item type. A price [appearing in Peruvian pesos?] appears in a column on the far right edge of the page after each description. Items are numbered on the left hand side of the page. The final page of the inventory is signed by Madre Doña Maria Sebastiana Tello de Meneses and several other religious sisters in the Monasterio de Santa Clara as witnesses.
The receipts in the second half of the volume are often dated by the signatory party and provide a listing of price, item(s) received, and from whom they received the item. The bulk of the receipts list Madre Doña Maria Sebastiana Tello de Meneses. Amounts paid appear to be in Peruvian pesos, reales, and centavos.
