Document: Order on the petition of Johannes Verveelen for the recovery of a debt due by a deceased soldier

Received a request from Johannes Verveelen, showing that he had order and authorization of Jacob de Lange, merchant at Amsterdam, to claim and receive from Daniel Solier, corporael, the sum of ƒ350, about which sum he had repeatedly addressed the said Solier, who promised to pay him in the spring. And because the said Solier now all of a sudden has died, he requested that his goods be inventoried and sold and the creditors paid.

The request having been read, it was after deliberation, agreed to resolve, that an order to inventory the dead man’s goods had already been made before this was shown.
