Translation

Before me, Cornelis van Tienhoven, secretary of New Netherland, appeared Fredrick Lubbersen, inhabitant here, who acknowledges that he is well and truly indebted to Hendrick Arentsen in the sum of six hundred and sixty-three guilders, arising from the purchase of sugar which the above mentioned Fredrick Lubbersen received into his possession before the execution hereof. Fredrick Lubbersen promises to pay the aforesaid sum to the said Hendrick Arentsz, or his order, free of costs and charges, without exception, in nine months from date, being the 20th of June 1647, and that in good, whole, merchantable beavers, as two referees shall judge proper. All of which the purchaser has signed in the record, in the presence of the undersigned witnesses, the 20th of September 1646, at the Manhatans in New Netherland.
