[several lines lost] from the [ ] Laedemaecker [ ] that this [ ] on the invoice [ ] or was declared [ ] recognition fees [ should be ] paid thereon, about which [ ], according to the edicts, it could be confiscated, even more so because it is usually used to put gunstocks on the (secretly) imported barrels. For reasons, however, it is resolved for this time to let it pass, provided that the recipients pay the usual tax to the director general’s receiver according to the value of the purchase price in the fatherland. Dated as above.
