NOTES [1] The viceroy of India from May, 1591 to May, 1597 was Matias de Albuquerque; he was succeeded by Francisco da Gama, Conde de Vidiguera, a grandson of the noted Vasco da Gama. On December 25, 1600, Ayres de Saldanha became viceroy, holding that office a little more than four years. "During the 'captivity' or subjection to Spain (1580-1640) India was governed entirely through the _Casa da India_ at Lisbon, and altogether in the interests of Portugal and the Portuguese officials, who, as will be seen in vol. ii, jealously excluded Spanish interference."--Gray and Bell, note in _Voyage of Francis Pyrard_ (Hakluyt Society's publication no. 76, London, 1887), i, p. 439. [2] _Galagala_: the name of a coniferous tree (also known as _piayo_ and _damar; Agathis orantifolia_), which produces a resin that is used for burning, for lighting, and for calking vessels.
