[several lines lost] [ ] against Hendrick Sweerincx [ defendant. ] The plaintiff requests that the defendant be condemned to observe the contract entered into with lord van Capelle on 25 November 1657, the more so because he received goods on it.

The defendant replies that he is unable to move his wife thereto, offering to return what was received.

The director general and councilors, having heard the parties, condemn the defendant to observe his concluded contract. Dated as above.
