Before me, Cornelis van Tienhoven, secretary of New Netherland, appeared Hans Hansen, who in the presence of the undersigned witnesses acknowledges that he is well and truly indebted to Cornelis Maersen,[1] residing in the colony of the Hon. Patroon Renselaer, in the sum of two hundred and fifty guilders, arising from the purchase of one hundred schepels of wheat delivered to him, Hans Hansen, by Jan Damen, before the execution hereof; which aforesaid sum he, Hans Hansen, promises to pay on the first of April next anno 1645. For further security and the performance hereof, free of costs and charges, he, Hans Hansen, binds his person and property, movable and immovable, present and future, submitting the same to the control of all lords, courts, tribunals and judges. In witness whereof this is signed by Hans Hansen and the witnesses hereto invited, this 9th of December anno 1644, in Fort Amsterdam in New Netherland.
