At the request of Tomas S[ py ]se[ r ], Adam Mott, about twenty-three years of age, attests and declares that some time ago, about July last, he heard Willem Lachem say that he owed the above mentioned Tomas Spyser fifty guilders or thereabouts. All of which he, the deponent, declares, in place of an oath, to be true, offering to confirm the same. In testimony whereof this is signed in the record by Adam Madt, the 23rd of October anno 1645, in Fort Amsterdam, New Netherland.
