12 October

On this date appeared before us, pursuant to summons, Jacob van Corler and Jacob Silliakes with the magistrates of Gravesande. Upon hearing their request, the director general and councilors resolved that whenever the magistrates and general inhabitants of the village of Gravesande hear or anticipate any further danger, as there is presently, and they inform the director general and councilors, military assistance shall be sent to them, according to circumstances, pursuant to the letter sent to them by the director general, dated the 9th of this month. Ady ut supra at Fort Amsterdam in New Netherland.[1]
