Thus resolved and decreed in the Honorable Office Gamron on the day, month and year aforesaid was signed P. Clement, C. de Haan, W. H. van Jongstal, E. de Poorter, and C. Bylevelt Resident and provisional Secretary. Resolution 7 6 f 563 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 Resolution taken in the Council of Policy at Gamron On Thursday the 28th June 1742 All Present The members of the Council having appeared in the ordinary meeting room and being seated, God's help having been ardently invoked, the Honorable Commander proceeded to propose that, since it had pleased the Almighty to take the skipper of the Cornelia, Gerrit Scheepbrouwer, yesterday out of this transitory life into His eternal glory, the necessity of appointing another master over that vessel, the more so because recently that keel had already been arranged among us via Bushehr to Basra, proposing at the same time the present skipper of the wrecked ship Ridderskerk, Jan Zion, for this purpose, just as after consideration it was also resolved to assign the said skipper Zion to that vessel, and at the same time to bring up in the meeting whether he would be in a state From Persia under date 31 October 1742 to be able to steer with that ship to Basra without notable or greatly to be feared danger, the same was called inside and asked whether he would be able and dare to undertake the just mentioned voyage with the Cornelia, upon which he replied that if the ship did not draw too much water and was provided with a good pilot, he would indeed dare to undertake such, being further asked how much water was on the bank or otherwise the channel right before the river through which they had to enter, the same answered that according to his memory when he was last there he had found 18 feet at high water, having then stepped outside and after everything was further weighed again back and forth, it was resolved in God's name to let that vessel undertake the voyage as soon as possible, because we dare not leave the subordinate offices any longer in distress for merchandise, however with this understanding that the Commissioner at Bushehr, Jacob van Schoonderwoert, shall be ordered by letter that before he proceeds to the further forwarding of that vessel to Basra, he 565 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 shall have to inquire with the daily departing and arriving nakhodas about the condition of the banks etc., as well as whether that vessel could be brought without danger over the same and into the river before the bar, and in case of no, or if some difficulty were to be feared around there, to then detain that vessel and not dispatch it, but immediately give notice thereof to us as well as to the Honorable Mr. van Suchtelen, so that in such a case we may jointly consider how the merchandise may best be forwarded to Basra, yet if the Commissioner should make no difficulty in sending the ship thither, and the same nevertheless storm and bad weather excluded should happen to meet with an accident due to the shallows, then such shall be and remain for his account and responsibility, since he can there very easily have himself informed of the condition of that fairway and can make himself secure enough in this regard. Furthermore the Honorable Commander proceeded to bring to the recollection of the members how by the departure of the sloop de Valk to Laft for repairs From Persia under date 31 October 1742 along with its commander Claas Visscher, the hearing of the present skipper Jan Zion concerning the loss of his ship Ridderskerk, the examination of the journal, and that of the declaration of how the loss of the ship Ridderskerk had occurred, had remained stuck, and since in the intervening time not only the said commander Claas Visscher but now also the skipper Gerrit Scheepbrouwer have gone the way of all flesh, so that of the three appointed examiners only the chief mate Willem van Mensburgh is left, he therefore put to the question to whom among the seafarers presently at hand one might best assign this commission, yet since through the death of the aforesaid two seamen no one was found at hand here to whom one could with peace of mind assign such a weighty work, for the reason that most were still only young, inexperienced mates, it was therefore decided to leave the hearing of the said skipper and the resumption of the papers to the pleasure of their High Nobilities at Batavia, since none of us has proper knowledge of seafaring.

567 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 having, and there are also no subjects at hand for settling that matter. Also taken for reading was a written petition from the boy Simon van Veen, to be discharged from seafaring and to be employed in clerical service, and because, in fact, upon review, it is often found that from such similar young persons the most capable subjects come forth in time, especially in these lands, where they are very useful for being trained in the Persian language, it has been resolved and approved, since we could not perceive that any disadvantage was brought thereby to the Honorable Company, to grant his request, as was also done with the sailor Jan Gouwer of Koningsberg, who on his outward voyage on the ship Heuvel was advanced to gunner's mate with an increase in wages and now comes humbly to petition for an increase thereof, to promote the same from ƒ8 to ƒ 11 per month, rather with halving of wages on his current contract; likewise, the sailor Marcul Severyn of Mechelen, who Anno 1736 Anno 1736 arrived in India on the ship West Cappel in the said capacity and at ƒ 8, is now increased in wages to ƒ10 per month under a three-year contract. Living in humble hope that this and all that is resolved herein may be graciously approved and accepted by Their High Excellencies, the Supreme Indian Government at Batavia. Thus resolved and decreed in the Honorable Company's Gamron on the day, month, and year aforesaid; was signed: S. Clement, C. de Haan, W. A. van Jongstal, E. de Poorter, and C. Bylevelt, councilor and provisional secretary. On Wednesday the 11th of July Anno 1742 All Present The Political Council at the ordinary meeting Resolution Taken in the Council of Policy at Gamron From Persia under date 31 October 1742 place 3 ƒ 569 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 having arrived at the place, taken seats, and invoked God's holy name, first of all Their High Excellencies' much esteemed letter of the date 14 May, brought here this day by the vessel De Duyff, was read with much attention, accompanied by the act of authorization and the form of the oath, from which it appeared that the election to the weighty governance as Governor-General of all the Netherlands India had fallen upon His Excellency the High Noble, Rigorous, and Right Honorable Lord Johannes Thedens, and who on 6 November last had already assumed the governance as Governor-General of India, on which account, by the highest-mentioned respected letter, it was ordered to effectuate the presentation of the well-mentioned His Excellency in that eminent character according to previous custom, so that everyone may know whom he shall henceforth recognize, honor, and respect as his Governor-General. Hereupon the Honorable Administrator asked what day or time would best be appointed for this purpose; thus it was approved and resolved, in order to make no change in the unloading and loading of the just-mentioned vessel, likewise of the From Persia under date 31 October 1742 of the ship De Cornelia, because, as will be said hereafter, it was approved to berth the same, or the Duyff in its place, to delay therewith so long until the said vessel should be fully loaded and seaworthy for Boucher and Bassoura, in order thus to observe the service of the Lords and Masters as well as this honored order. Subsequently, the report submitted by the provisional Fiscal and judicial commissioners regarding the visitation and muster of the vessel De Duyff was taken for reading, from which it appears that no private goods were found therein, nor any absentees, but indeed that the vessel drew 14½ feet forward and 16 feet aft; and since that document shows that the 571 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 the commission was carried out according to order, the insertion thereof was dispensed with. Also, it was seen from the invoice of the said vessel that it pleases Their High Excellencies that the persons who dispatched, shipped, and delivered the yarn per the ship Middenrak will have to be debited in the following manner for 3424 lb or 5 1/32 per cent which fell short to the crew beyond what was validated, as well as the 3502 lb which was found at Batavia upon sorting to be pure dust and unserviceable matter; thus this point was considered, and taking into account the highly formidable orders of Their High Excellencies against which no action can be taken, it was approved to have the Warehouse Master acting at that time, Christoffel de Haan, From Persia under date 31 October 1742 debited for the aforesaid shortage of lb 3424 or 5 1/32 per cent, being ƒ401:19:—, and to have the other remaining dust found, lb 3502 or ƒ 411: 2: —, compensated by the one who made the purchase, being the Honorable Jacob van Schoonderwoert, Commissioner at Boucher. Furthermore, the Commander brought to attention that the ordinary annual muster under the last day of June had been properly carried out by the Fiscal and two commissioners, both on this shore and on the ship De Cornelia, with the strength of the men who were in this directorship during that time at Gamron, Bassoura, Boucher, Spahan, likewise on the ship De Cornelia and the sloop De Valk, being found to be 213 persons, as: 80 573 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 84 persons at this Company's Gamron 3 persons at Bassoura 2 persons at Boucher 3 persons at Spahan 100 persons on the ship De Cornelia 21 persons on the sloop De Valk at its departure to the latter 213 totaling as above. The Honorable Administrator also brought to the table a certain report in the form of a transfer submitted by the Fiscal and two commissioned members, containing the handover of the equipment, ammunition, artillery, and other goods belonging to the ship De Cornelia lying here in the roads, by the chief mate Willem van Mensburg to the provisional skipper Jan

From Persia under date 31 October 1742 150 pieces of mats to mat the ship 50 Chinese planks for the dunnage 15 bundles of binding rattan for ship's necessities 50 lb lampblack 7 copper thimbles for the rudder 12 pieces of flag bunting to make a flag and jack ½ lb sewing thread Beneath stood: Which doing etcetera. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy at Gamron the 11th of July Anno 1742. Was signed: C. Bylevelt councillor and provisional secretary. To the Honorable Simon Clement, merchant and provisional governor of the Persian Directorate, together with his Council. Commanding Sir and Honorable Sirs, The petitioners, Your Honors' and Your Worships' humble servants Ian Zion van Dorth, provisional skipper, and Galenus van Oort, ship's bookkeeper, both appointed to the ship de Cornelia, show with the most due respect how they, petitioners, through the constant demands of the ship's crew to enjoy an advance on their current pay accounts, find themselves necessitated to request Your Honors and Your Worships, according to their promise, to be pleased to accommodate them, petitioners, with all such monies as the accompanying good month roll dictates. Beneath stood: Which doing etcetera. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy at Gamron the 11th of July 1742. Was signed: C. Bijleveld, councillor and provisional secretary. Thus, after deliberation, it was resolved to disburse the requested monies, to hand out the hand-monies, and to have the goods delivered, except for the flag bunting and sewing thread, as being sorely needed. Furthermore, a report was submitted to the Table by the Commander, presented by the Fiscal and committee members, regarding 2 barrels of soured beer, being one JM and one trowel, which writing is granted space below. Report made and in all reverence submitted to the Honorable Simon Clement, merchant and provisional governor of this Directorate, together with the Council. Honorable Sir and Sirs, In conformity with the revered orders as well as Your Honors' verbal instruction, the undersigned judicial commissioners, in the presence of the junior merchant and provisional fiscal Emanuel de Poorter, betook themselves to the Company's dispensary and there inspected and tested two barrels of beer out of the 21 recently brought by the vessel de Cornelia, and after inspection found 1 ditto JM to be 7 inches and 1 ditto trowel to be 13 percent, so although the said liquor was indeed delivered to the shore, the same was nevertheless found by us to be completely sour and undrinkable, and on that account deemed non-vendible and usable for nothing else than for vinegar, the spoiling of which can be attributed to nothing other than its deficiency, seeing that this penetrating and piercingly hot climate has contributed to this very much and indeed the most. Wherewith we hope to have complied with the honored requirement, wherefore we assume the honor to be and remain, Beneath stood: Your Honors' humble and obedient servants. Was signed: Wm Lindeman, Cl. Ao. Schoffier. In the middle: In the presence of me, signed: E. de Poorter. In the margin: Gamron, the 5th of July 1742. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy at Gamron on 9 July 1742. Was signed: C. Biylevelt, councillor and provisional secretary. Thus it is resolved and approved, according to the honored orders of our Lords and Masters, to cause the same to leak away and then distribute it to the garrison or otherwise, and to bring the remaining good barrels of beer to public auction at the first convenient opportunity, to preserve them from spoiling. Subsequently, the Governor came to make another proposal to the members, as the small vessel De Duyf had now arrived in these roads, whereby they had obtained a good opportunity to send that small hull with peace of mind via Boucher to Bassoura; however, that the vessel De Cornelia was ready to sail, and the letters for the said two offices were already in readiness, so that that hull could undertake its voyage tomorrow, but since that vessel was rather too large to go to Bassoura with peace of mind, the deployment of that hull having been practically half forced, because they dared not leave the subordinate offices any longer without merchandise; thus in his opinion it was better to stand down the Cornelia in God's name and deploy De Duyf in its place, and let it undertake its voyage as soon as possible; which, after mature deliberation by every member of this table, was also deemed best, since they then had no danger to expect, except for the weather of God; and on that account, with unanimous votes, the deployment was established and decided. Furthermore, a certain report was taken for reading, submitted by the skipper Jan Zion and chief mate Willem van Mensburgh, concerning their performed commission in inspecting the stowage of 22 leaguers of arrack, which were completely and according to seamen's custom stowed in De Duyf, and since that commission had taken place according to the order given.

597 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 done, thus its report is excused from insertion here, just as a resolution was taken upon a submitted request from the paymaster Claude Anthony Schoffier to obtain such monies amounting to m=s 62 as the quartermaster of the sloop De Valk named Johannes Wynkamp remained indebted by his decease for common goods purchased at the auction of the second mate Tobias Pietersz: Schroder, who died here; and since he, the paymaster, had already paid the said monies out of his pocket under ultimo February of last year, and furthermore this quartermaster had likewise gone the way of all flesh, yet still had remaining to his credit on his pay account ƒ 37:2:—, he therefore requested that he might be permitted to withdraw those monies from the said pay standing to his credit, as the petition inserted here below further shows: To From Persia under date 31 October 1742 To the Honorable, Respected Mr. Simon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Commander of this Persian Directorate and its dependencies, together with the Honorable Council. Honorable Commanding Sir and Honorable Gentlemen: The petitioner, your honors' humble servant Claude Anthonie Schoffier, respectfully demonstrates how he, the petitioner, under ultimo February last, sold the estate of the late second mate Tobias Pietersz: Schroder at public auction in the presence of 2 specially appointed delegates; item, at the said sale, the quartermaster of the Company's sloop De Valk named Johannes Wynkamp, who died on 21 June, had spent on some common goods a sum of N=o 62, as can be seen more fully in the auction roll if desired; he left behind not the slightest goods at his death; item, his pay account, after deduction of nn: 62- or ƒ 7:18, still retains to his credit ƒ 9:4:—; and from which he, the petitioner, turns to your honors with an entirely humble request that the said monies from the Company's treasury may be refunded to him, the petitioner, provided that the deceased's account is debited for that amount, since, Honorable Sir and Honorable Gentlemen, respectfully speaking, the said estate monies have already been advanced by the aforementioned curator ad lites out of his own pocket and deposited into the Company's treasury, and also that the auctions of such low-ranking persons, 599 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 leaving behind nothing of note, are sold on credit of 6 weeks, indeed sometimes 2 to 3 months, for which reason in that case the curator ad lites finds himself compelled, in order to sell such modest goods, to sell them to the military and navy on credit against the monthly wages to be received, and to credit them for that duration and time. Below stood: Which doing, etc. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy at Gamron the 11th of July 1742. Was signed: C:s Bylevelt, Member of Council and Provisional Secretary. Thus, after deliberation, it was resolved to grant the paymaster's request, as it is not unreasonable. Finally, the Commanding Officer submitted some written requests and at the same time proposed some verbal requests for wage increases for various persons, namely first of all for Abraham de Jong of Sluis in Flanders, who arrived in India in the year 1740 as provisional chief surgeon at ƒ 14, and recently arrived here on the vessel De Cornelia, and according to the Council's From Persia under date 31 October 1742 Council resolution of 31 May was discharged ashore in the said capacity, his wage is now, upon his urgent request, being a sober and capable person, increased to ƒ 36 under a new contract of three years. Syrach Agges of Batavia, who entered the service in the year 1737 as a soldier of the pen at ƒ 9 per month and arrived here on the vessel Middenrak, is hereby, upon his humble petition, since he is a person of good conduct and expectation, and also upon expiration of his term, granted ƒ 20 per month under a new three-year contract. Daniel van Uylenbroek of Amsterdam, who arrived in India in the year 1739 on the ship Strijen as an arquebusier at ƒ 11 per month, and arrived here last year on the vessel De Ketel, 601 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 item, discharged ashore at that time as a bookkeeper, his wage is now, upon his humble request and expiration of his term, increased to ƒ 15 per month under a new contract of 3 years. Otto van Breemen of Bramsteede, who arrived in India in the year 1740 as third watch and ƒ 26 per month on the ship Rugven, and now arrived here in the said capacity on the Cornelia, is now, upon his humble request, since he has for some time performed the duty of first second mate and is a man of good conduct according to the testimony of his superiors, promoted with wage adjustment to second mate at ƒ 29 per month on his running contract. Matthys Christiaanse of Nieuwkoop, who arrived in India in the year 1739 as an arquebusier at ƒ 11 per month, and subsequently arrived here on the small ship De Duyff, From Persia under date 31 October 1742 inasmuch as he was appointed provisional gunner at Batavia and was employed in that service during the voyage, which he also performed to the satisfaction of his superiors, he is therefore, upon his humble request, favored with that capacity with the addition of a new 3-year contract at ƒ 24 per month. Francois De Roij of Amsterdam, who arrived in India as a gunner's blacksmith at ƒ 14 per month in the year 1742 on 't Huys te Hult, and subsequently arrived here on De Duiff, and inasmuch as he was appointed to the capacity of steward at Batavia provisionally, which duty he performed during the voyage to the satisfaction of his superiors, he is therefore confirmed in that service with wage adjustment to ƒ 17 per month, to serve out his running contract for that amount.

Winder Meanwhile, citation and mention were also made here that the said vessel has been properly inspected and mustered by the Fiscal and the Judicial Commissioners, as well as drawing 14 feet forward and 16¼ feet aft, but nevertheless nothing that could be termed private was discovered therein, wherefore the insertion of that report, having been drawn up according to custom, is excused. Finally, there was also taken for reconsideration a written petition of the assistant Van Persia Onder dato 31 October 1742 assistant Jan Dirk van den Broek, in order that he may be assisted with 3 months' pay at ƒ 16 per month out of his accrued wages amounting to ƒ 63:19:—, to be seen in more detail in what is inserted here below. To the Honorable Mr. Semon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Director of the Persian Directorate, together with the Honorable Council. Honorable Sir and Gentlemen, The petitioner, your honors' entirely humble servant Jan van den Broek, junior assistant, respectfully states how he, the petitioner, has accrued on his current pay account a sum of ƒ 63:19:—, and whereas he, the petitioner, is currently afflicted with a severe injury in the side, which requires much clean linen, and moreover most of his linen is ruined; so it is that he, the petitioner, turns to your honors with the humble plea that you will 615 From Persia under date 31 October 1742 please allow him to enjoy three months' pay at ƒ 16 per month. Beneath stood: Which doing, etc. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and the petitioner's request granted in the Council of Gamron on 6 August anno 1742. Was signed: C. Bijlevelt, Councillor and Provisional Secretary. And whereas we were all aware that this person was visited by a severe injury and could not sustain himself without assistance with what he needed, his request was therefore granted as being in accordance with orders and equity. Wherewith this session came to an end, with the wish that everything transacted herein may meet with the approval of their High Mightinesses in Batavia. Thus resolved and enacted in the Office of Gamron, From Persia under date 31 October 1742 Gamron, on the day, month, and year aforesaid. Was signed: J. Clement, C. de Haan, W.

619 to Persia under date 31 October 1742 10 packages Cassas Jangernat pieces coarse Bengal Whereas the 250 pieces of partly damaged gunnies shown here are still somewhat usable for domestic use and packaging, the crew are therefore released from indemnification for the same. Concerning the opposite: resolved to have the mate Adriaan van Oosterzee compensate for the same according to the recently fixed buyout price of 58 guilders for the 6 pounds, or else the entire quantity of 171 pounds of dust according to the honored order, and to send those back to Batavia by the first shipping opportunity, as well as the remaining shortage of 11 ¾ pounds of silk, the crew having first taken the oath regarding their conduct. 31 packages linens carried forward: 9797 pounds, 9964 pounds. 4 packages coarse Mallemolles des Santipoer named according to the muster-roll here to be loaded: and Batavia here 464: 156, 156 463: 147, 154 466: 156, 163 465: 152, 160 4 packages coarse Mallemolles des Santipoer: 611 pounds, 633 pounds. 467: 269, 269 280, 280 203, 278 206, 272 277, 202 274, 277 469: 277, 278 461: 272, 202 281, 278 207, 277 273, 278 204, 278 270, 275 281 2776 pounds, 2748 pounds. 10 packages Cassas Jangernat pieces Bengal 45 packages linens, all received outwardly dry and well-conditioned, and stored in the Company's warehouses, weighing together gross 13156 pounds, 13375 pounds. 1 small package marked Letter S containing according to invoice: 100 pairs cotton stockings, Coast. 15000 pieces long Bengal gunnies according to bill of lading. Of which discharged at Cochin, as appears from the memorandum thereof: 4000 pieces. Damaged and completely unusable: 250 pieces. Therefore finally delivered in good gunnies: 10750 pieces. Total: 15000 pieces. Concerning the rotting of the aforementioned 250 pieces of gunny, the officers can allege no other reasons than that this must have occurred because the same lay against the ship's side where this merchandise is usually stowed, and was thus spoiled by the water that runs between the ceiling planks, whereby this merchandise began to heat and notoriously became subject to rotting. Packages sweet line received according to invoice: 600 pounds. 7 ¾ pounds stolen nuts are 185 chests of nutmegs and cloves, of which the nutmegs alone according to invoice should weigh net: 24053 pounds. Of which discharged at Cochin: net 3261 pounds. Stolen through negligence of the second mate Van Oosterzee, as he had the supervision thereof in the vessel: 79 ¾ pounds. Separated as collected dust: 35 pounds. Thus amounting in pure nutmegs to: 20666 pounds. Total: 24041 ¼ pounds. Therefore short: 11 ¾ pounds. For which the officers can produce no other reasons than that, because the nutmegs were found upon receipt here to be largely mite-eaten, it is also easy to understand that this deficiency must have been caused thereby. Having discharged, resolved to have him compensate 327 guilders, 13 stivers, 8 pence, because this occurred through his negligence, since as boatmaster he came ashore with it, and the 35 ditto validated.

Persia, under date 31 October 1742 Of the lb 370 or 4¾ per cent shortage noted in the margin, lb 170 or 2 per cent has been granted to the ship's officers, and the remaining missing lb 200 or 2¾ per cent is charged to their account to be compensated at purchase price. With the 19¾ lb of stolen cloves shown here beside it, the matter is to be handled in the same manner as stated for the nutmegs, namely the 6 lb and mt. 85 ¾ or the entire quantity with m=o 281 at ƒ 119:8:8 charged to his account, because this was also caused by the poor vigilance of the above-mentioned pilot van Oosterzee, and the 34¼ lb of found dust still recorded will likewise be dealt with according to Their High Excellencies' honored Batavian order. 160 chests of cloves, which had been mixed with what was under the nutmegs, were to weigh netto lb 18036:— Discharged from the ship at Cochin netto lb 8 — - 7004 Stolen through and as stated with the nutmegs — - 19:½ Dust collected together — 34 ¼ — 18036:— 6 chests of Malabar Cardamom according to Invoice netto lb 900:— However, no more was delivered here than netto lb 874:— Which again gives a shortage of lb 26:— or 3 per cent shortage, regarding which the aforementioned crew members take into consideration that this fruit always dries in heavily, therefore they request that this loss may be granted to them. Because the shortage shown alongside of 26 lb or 3 per cent cardamom is not excessive, it is granted to those crew members. The dust mentioned alongside amounting to lb 3065 or 1 per cent is cleared by the commissioners according to the latest order under the taking of the oath regarding its execution; and of the lb 28677 or 8 per cent shortage, the officers, on account of the numerous reasons brought forward, are granted in total lb 10590 or 3 per cent, and the remaining lb 20642 or 6 per cent is resolved, according to the latest order of Their High Excellencies contained in the letter of 6 November of the past year, to be charged to their account at purchase price. Black winnowed Bantam pepper according to Bill of Lading lb 351000:— Of which first discharged netto lb 207809:— Thereafter re-winnowed a quantity of lb 110049:— The dust lost therefrom amounts to lb 3065:— Total lb 321923:— Therefore short lb 28077:— or 8 per cent shortage, of which excessive shortage we can give no further discharge other than that it originates, firstly, from the heavy drying-in to which pepper in the hot hold is always subject; secondly, from the considerable dust with which that cargo was essentially mixed and which was lost during winnowing; both of which are proven by the immense quantity with which the hold was soiled during this work. Furthermore, the officers attested, as appears from the attestation annexed hereto, to having received the same so dusty at Onrust that some sacks (which it was claimed had been winnowed for the fatherland) were accepted unexamined. Finally, the deficiency can in some measure be attributed to the constant pumping of pepper, as appears from the accompanying declarations, as well as the spillage which inevitably occurred during shipping, item embezzled through the dishonesty of the porters, against which it is virtually impossible to indemnify the goods. Ceylon coffee beans which according to Bill of Lading weighed netto lb 8483:— Have achieved no more here than netto lb 8113:— Therefore again a shortage of lb 370:— or 4¼ per cent. Regarding this, the officers allege that the bales were wrapped and received with poor and rotten Tuticorin gunny, which was evident here upon delivery in the Company's warehouses, where the said bales arrived in pieces and fragments, which then probably, besides the drying-in to which coffee beans in ship's holds are subject, has caused this deficiency.

Persia Under date 31 October 1742 Whereas the shortage of 217 lb or 3 3/2 percent appearing here alongside is not excessive, the authorities wished to pass that short weight, 48, the more so because they received the said chests unopened at Batavia.

631 From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 We, the undersigned, declare at the request of the Honorable Captain Gerrit Scheepbouwer that we daily pumped more and more pepper, and when on 10 April Anno 1742 we pulled out the pump, more than half a bacon cask of pepper came out of it, as well as some small ballast baskets, which we are willing to confirm by oath if necessary. Thus done on the ship Cornelia, 12 April 1742. Was signed: Willem Mensburg, Bastiaan Mootenaar, Arent Wout, Willem van de Vooren, Erasmus Vermeulen, Matthys Schippers. We, the undersigned, declare at the request of the Honorable Captain Gerrit Scheepbouwer that on the morning of 26 December Anno 1741, while engaged in pumping, we found a small amount of pepper under the water, and finding it to be so daily, we, the undersigned, declare ourselves willing to confirm this with a solemn oath if necessary. On the Honorable Company's ship Cornelia, 8 January 1742. Was signed: Willem van Mensburg, Maarten Wout, Willem van de Vooren, Erasmus van der Meylen, Matthys Schippers. In the margin: In my presence, was signed: Gerrit van Oort as bookkeeper. Report made and submitted in all reverence to the Honorable Simon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Commander of this Directorate, together with the Council. Honorable Sir and Sirs, In accordance with the said orders, as well as Your Honors' verbal instructions, the undersigned judicial commissioners, in the presence of the Under-Merchant and Provisional Fiscal Emanuel de Poorter, went to the Company's dispensary and there inspected and tasted two of the twenty-one barrels of beer recently brought by the vessel Cornelia, and after inspection found: 1 ditto From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 1 ditto empty 7 inches and 1 ditto ullage 13 inches, and although the said liquid was safely delivered to the shore, it is nevertheless judged by us to be completely sour and undrinkable, and on that account unsaleable, and likewise unusable for anything other than vinegar, the spoilage of which can be attributed to nothing other than its ullage, though the said penetrating and intensely hot climate contributed very much and indeed the most to it. Wherewith we hope to have complied with the honored request, on which account we take the liberty of being and remaining, below stood: Your Honors' humble and obedient servants, signed: Willem Lindeman and Captain Anthonys Coffier. In the middle: In the presence of me, was signed: Emanuel de Poorter. In the margin: Gamron, this 5 July 1742. Beside the heading: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy, found approved 11 July Anno 1742, signed: Cornelis Bijlevelt, Junior Merchant and Provisional Secretary. On this day, the August 1742 Appeared before me, Antonis van Nes, bookkeeper and sworn First Clerk of this Gamron Secretariat, standing under the supreme direction of the Honorable Simon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Commander of the Persian Directorate, in the presence of the witnesses to be mentioned hereafter, the persons of Petrus Johannes Crappoes and Syrach Agges, assistants in the service of the Honorable Company and as such assigned to this office; likewise the mate Maarten Wout and Bastiaan Moolenaar, the latter now provisional master of the sloop De Valk, which has lately been undergoing repairs, as well as Wouter van der Vooren, boatswain, Erasmus Vermeulen, boatswain's mate, and Matthys 633 From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 Schippers, gunner, who, having been the first-named commissioners at the delivery of the cargo of the ship Cornelia, and therefore all together and each of them in particular, declare out of love for the pure truth and at the request of the chief mate of that vessel, Willem van Niensburg, how during the unloading of the said vessel on 21 May last they noticed an arrack leaguer to have run completely empty; but that, upon further inspection, they found this was not due to carelessness or neglect by the said chief mate, nor to the stowage of the hold, because the tier in which the said leaguer lay was very well arranged, and also because the bulges of the casks lay sufficiently free, etc., but that the said leakage, in their opinion, was apparently the true source of the defect, through the bad condition of the chimes at that bilge. Finally, the appearers hereby conclude their given declaration, giving as reasons of knowledge that they have thus seen and attended it, remaining therefore ready for further confirmation, if required, to affirm the same under oath. Thus done and declared in the office at Gamron at the time aforesaid, in the presence of the assistants Gerrit van Aschen and Jan Busingh, clerks at this secretariat, as witnesses, who have signed the minute of this together with the appearers and me, the sworn First Clerk. Lower down stood: Which I attest, signed: Antonis van Nes, sworn First Clerk.

From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 We the undersigned declare that we have fully examined in navigation, as well as in whatever further pertains to seamanship, and found qualified, the person of Jacob Cleebou of Dronthem, so that he would be able to perform said service should it be required. In the Honorable Factory at Gamron, this 10 September Anno 1742. Was signed: Jan Lion and Willem van Mensburg. Meanwhile, upon the earnest request of Frans Verbouwen of Brugge, who arrived in India Anno 1737 as a sailor and reached this place on the aforementioned vessel as a cooper's mate at 11 guilders per month, consideration was also given, and since, according to the testimony of his superiors, this is a person of completely good conduct, he is favored with the above-cited vacant post of cooper and 20 guilders per month under a new contract of 3 years. Furthermore, the Commander submitted to the members a report drawn up by his orders by the paymaster Claude Anthony Schoffier concerning the fugitive Pieter Matthijsz of Stockholm, who had been stationed as boatswain's mate on the vessel the Cornelia. That From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 That document being of such tenor as can be seen below upon its presentation. Report made and respectfully delivered to the Honorable Mr. Simon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Authority of this Persian Directorate and its dependencies, together with the Honorable Council. Honorable Ruling Lord and Honorable Sirs, According to Your Honors' respected order, I, the undersigned, proceeded to the English lodge and to the residence of the agent, Mr. Nathaniel Whitwell, and after offering the usual compliments on Your Honors' behalf, made known to him that one Pieter Matthijsz, stationed as boatswain's mate on the ship the Cornelia lying here in the roads, having come ashore, had gone missing on the 27th of this month, presenting to him that the Authority did not doubt that, on account of the mutual friendship maintained both in Kerman and here, the lord agent would show the same courtesy to His Honor as he had shown to the Honorable Carel Coenad; therefore very earnestly requesting the lord agent through me to return the aforementioned fugitive to the Company, with reciprocal promises that should a similar case occur to the well-esteemed agent, Your Honors would render him the very same assistance. Whereupon the English chief answered that nothing was known of that runaway, and that the captains of the two ships had departed for Isin, but that he, the agent, would send orders aboard the aforementioned ships so that if the said person were on board the two ships, he would be sent ashore for delivery, adding that he, Mr. Whitwell, had given orders to the captains upon the arrival of the well-esteemed ships not to take on any men for whatever reason it might be. Having anew or the following day received orders from Your Honors From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 to go to the English lodge to the agent Mr. Whitwell to learn whether he had found the fugitive Pieter Matthijsz and was minded to hand him over, and having arrived there and asked the lord agent such, that gentleman replied that he had made inquiries after that person, but that the senior officers of the two Company ships had informed him that the fugitive was not on board with them. The agent received a similar reply from Mr. Charles Lodewijk, supercargo on the ship the Galatea lying here in the roads. But, the agent added, because it is not unknown to us that sailors can conceal a person in such a manner that all efforts applied thereto are in vain, I shall, as soon as the two captains return from Isin, most earnestly request them to conduct a closer and exact search for the aforementioned person, though on condition that upon the recovery of that deserter no harm may come to him. Whereupon I, by Your Honors' order and in the name of the English Agent Mr. Whitwell, replied with such a promise as well. The agent was also pleased to say that, as he had handed over two deserted persons to the Honorable Authority Carel Coenad, he the agent would in this case do no less for the present Authority. Wherewith, Honorable Ruling Lord and Honorable Sirs, I hope to have carried out this my assigned order to Your Honors' satisfaction; therefore I shall take the liberty to sign myself, underneath stood: Your Honors' humble, obedient, and faithful servant, signed: Claude Anthony Schoffier. In the margin: Gamron, the 30th of August 1742. Beside the heading stood: Exhibited and served in the Council of Policy at Gamron, the 4th of September 1742, was signed: Cornelis Bijlevelt, councilor and provisional secretary. To From Persia, dated 31 October 1742 Upon the reading of which it was seen that nothing else could be done in such a case than what the Authority had already done; nevertheless, His Honor promised that they would send once more to the cited lord agent Whitwell with an earnest request to have an accurate search conducted on his ships lying in the roads, so that they might recover the aforementioned runaway, the more so because the lord agent had yesterday assured the Authority through his interpreter, with solemn assurances and a promise of restitution. Furthermore, a written report showed the repairs carried out on the Honorable Company's buildings in the past 6 months, as can be seen in further detail from the specification given space below, reading as follows: Specification of
