Adriaen Blommaert, skipper on the ship Nieu Amsterdam, departing from here to New Netherland, requests, if he is unable to obtain a cargo in New Netherland for his return voyage, that he then be allowed to pick up a cargo in France so as not to diminish his agreed upon freight earnings. Done under surety before the Company's authorities.
