Having read the foregoing petition and after discussion thereon, the following response was issued: The La Garce was claimed as a prize anno 1650, long after the conclusion of peace; because it was taken contrary to treaty, it can therefore not be declared as a prize. Done at Amsterdam in New Netherland, the 19th of June 1656.
