Before me, Cornelis van Tienhoven, secretary of New Netherland, appeared G[ e ]orge Grace, about fifty years of age, who at the request of Tymen Jansen attests, testifies and declares, in place and with promise of a solemn oath if need be and if thereto required, that one Willem Wyman, former servant of Mr. Tomas Oldens, residing in Virginia, administrator of the estate of the deceased Tomansen Ses,[1] told him that there is a note signed by Captain Foulke Brent for 1600 lb. of tobacco remaining unpaid in the hands of the heirs of the above named Mr. Oldes, which is said to have been received from Mr. Dirck Corsen.[2] All of which the deponent attests to be true and truthful. Done the 12th of October anno 1643.
