Translation

Having read the petition of Jan Hendricksen, requesting a writ of appeal concerning a certain judgment pronounced by the court of Vlissingen on Long Island dated 5 August 1654, between him and Tomas Saul. After deliberation it was decided that the writ be denied because the time of appeal has expired, and if the petitioner, as the petition mentions, intends to intiate an action against Jan de Sweet,[1] he can have the same summoned before his competent judges. Ady ut supra.
