Translation

At the session, having read the petition of Laurens Heyn, requesting that some brandy and spirits be removed from the warehouse that are not listed on the manifest;

After deliberation, the following response was issued:

Because neither the manifest nor the other documents show, and the petitioner does not prove, that the detained brandy and spirits was properly registered at Amsterdam and the recognition fee paid on it; therefore, the same is provisionally confiscated at the request of the fiscal, Tienhoven.

Done at Amsterdam in New Netherland.

Ady ut supra. 27 April 1655.

Was signed: Nicasius de Sille, La Montagne.
