Translation

Whereas the schout at Vlissingen has still not taken the proper oath, the fiscal Cornelis van Tienhoven and the secretary Van Ruyven are commissioned and authorized to administer the proper oath to him, and at the same time propose that the tappers’ excise be farmed out there. Ady ut supra.
