Resolution granting Augustyn Heerman liberty and freedom
[ ] May. Upon the petition of Jan Jansen Visscher, requesting
permission to depart for the fatherland with the first good wind: it is granted. Let
it serve as a response that according to the previous resolution[1] and a general order to prevent fraud, all
ships shall be obliged to take on water and firewood at this city. When this is done,
the manifests are signed and the bills of lading drawn up, and the ship is completely
prepared to sail, the petitioner shall not be detained to anyone's detriment.
Another recommendation was made; it appears on the other side of the aforesaid
page.[2]
Augustynes Harmans submits a petition requesting liberty and freedom, and to be excused for his contempt in breaking the Company's seal.
Recommendation.
Because the plaintiff has come to an agreement and settlement to
their mutual satisfaction, his request is granted, and the reason for the contempt of
the seal is favorably discharged.
