Order on a petition of Gysbert Opdyck that an attachment which he made on goods of Edward Hicby be declared valid
Having read the petition of Gijsbert op Dijck, requesting that a certain attachment made by him on a quantity of beavers belonging to Eduard Hicby be declared valid, as can be seen fuller in his petition in the copy book of petitions on folio [blank], it was decided after due deliberation that before the high council dispose further on it, the petitioner is ordered to prove that he had appealed in proper time, and that copies of the judgment and other documents had been denied him. Having done so, the high councilors shall decide according to the circumstances of the matter. Ady ut supra.
