Translation

The honorable lord director general resolved the above demand as follows: As the plaintiff’s party[i] claims that the seized goods have been shipped free of duty with the consent of the honorable lords directors at Amsterdam, the plaintiff is directed to restore them provisionally until further orders from the said honorable lords directors, making a proper specification of the quantity and quality and security for a further judgment. Done at Fort Amsterdam, in New Netherland, dated as above.

Translation Superscripts

[i]: Here “defendant’s party” was obviously intended for “plaintiff’s party.”
