In accordance with the agreement dated the 8th of May 1653, between Mr. Allert Antony and Augustynes Hermans, assisted by Mr. Cornelys de Potter in his capacity of agent of the creditors who have any claims against the estate or person of Augustynes Hermans, there appeared before me, Carel van Brugge, secretary of the High Council of New Netherland, the Hon. Schepen Pieter Wolpfertsen and Fredrick Phillips, as arbitrators chosen to valuate and appraise the stone house[1] and lot and the appurtenances thereof, as specified in the contract dated the 8th of May. Therefore, the aforesaid arbitrators, having duly weighed and considered everything, have unanimously found that Allert Antony aforesaid shall pay him, Augustynes Harmans for the aforesaid house and lot as described in the contract the sum of eight thousand and five hundred guilders. In witness whereof we have signed this Done this 12th of May A°. 1653, in New Amsterdam in New Netherland.
