Two volumes are dated from 1817 and one from 1821. The first (38 f.), somewhat disjointed, has the following title, gold engraved on the front cover; SG Lº da carga do Navio S.

They record the cargo, the name of the holders and their respective values, as well as the price of freight. We highlight the main goods: sugar boxes, tobacco rolls and bales, cotton sacks, cachaça barrels, tallow sheets, dry and salted leathers, etc. The three volumes with different formats, covered in contemporary bindings, fully red shagreen, slightly worn, with engraving on the front covers, borders on all covers and smooth spines.
