Excerpt from The Philippine Islands, 1493-1898, Vol. 31: Explorations by Early Navigators, Descriptions of the Islands and Their Peoples, Their History and Records of the Catholic Missions; 1640

Bishop Salazar's journey to Spain enables him to secure for his cathedral important aid, and the divi sion of his diocese, so that its manifold duties may be more satisfactorily performed; soon afterward, he dies at Madrid. During his absence, his see is directed by his vicar-general, Fray Christobal de Salvatierra, to an account of whose exemplary life, valuable labors, and apostolic virtues a chapter is devoted. He protects the Indians, and does much to reform the morals of the Spaniards. Among other things, he compels the Chinese to cease such of their theatrical performances as contain idolatrous and superstitious matter; and obliges the Spaniards to give up attendance at these comedies. It is he who begins the spiritual conquest of the Cagayan region, and he goes on other expeditions; and he assumes charge of the Bataan mission until missionaries come for that field. At his death, he appoints two Domini cans to assume his duties as vicar-general; but they are so opposed by the ecclesiastical cabildo that they resign the office to the latter. Next comes a bio graphical sketch of the younger Juan de Castro, who is assigned to the toilsome and difficult mission of Pangasinan. In December, 1593, he accompanies an embassy to China; on the return voyage, the ship is wrecked. Castro escapes to land, but soon after ward dies as a result of the shock and exposure thus suffered.
