to Persia under date 29 June 1743 of this the crew members the remaining 6½ per cent, counting the dust and debris to pay the price the alongside here 18 per cent dust counted therewith some [illegible] All delivered ashore in good condition and therefore also such packages were salvaged, along with the following which without weight and solely by piece count were sent hither and consist of what follows, namely: 1 pack with chintzes amberha containing 150 pieces, according to the Invoice, arrived well and undamaged 1 chest with pattern cloths, 36 pieces turned out Cloves according to the Invoice: lb 5000:- And of this there was found net on the scales: 4643: 8. Thus there is a shortage of: lb 356¼ charged to account, yielding in total 75 lb net of dust gathered therefrom, and for which the ship's officers come to present very probable reasons, such as that this cargo was first exposed to the great heat of the ship's hold during its transport from Gamron to here, and thereafter also in the open lighters exposed to the scorching heat of the sun, sometimes for as many as five and even six days during its unloading, and for that reason it must have dried out, over and above the fact that its chests, although repaired aboard ship prior to their unloading, nevertheless split apart through the rough handling of the boatmen and coolies, and some of them with broken lids were brought ashore here by the ordinary tollhouse coolies in the company of the European boatmasters, so that in the lighters and during the carrying up much must have been scattered and lost through their cracks and splits, not to mention that during its handling, pouring, garbling, and bringing to the scale, against all precautions used according to our abilities, some might have been crushed to powder and blown away by its common dustiness, and finally on top of all that, as appears from an annexed declaration, an amount of 278 lb, or 5 1/5 percent, of pure clove dust is found under that short weight, so that when this is subtracted from this whole quantity of cloves, there solely appears to be an actual shortage of 1 19/40 percent, and which deficit the ship's officers most humbly petition may be validated to them in consideration of the reasons given for it. Nutmegs, the Invoice dictates: lb 4000:- and the weight here net: 3954¾ is validated [illegible] percent, under which the dust gathered therefrom is included, consequently short: lb 45¼ and concerning this the same reasons are brought forward regarding the drying out as were resolved for the cloves, since its chests likewise came ashore here with open cracks and splits, and consequently much of its usual lime must have come loose and been lost through those open places, both from the working of the chests during their loading into the lighters and from the carrying up of the same, besides the fact that this spicy fruit was found to be somewhat infested with mites, which also caused that, during pouring and delivering, a quantity of 37½ lb of dust, yielding on this whole quantity only 1/16 net, was gathered and prepared for dispatch; so when that dust is subtracted from its whole shortage, it actually only appears that 7¾ lb, or [illegible] per cent, has been lost, and therefore the ship's officers hope to remain freed from that charge.

367 Persia, under date 29 June 1743 Of the short-delivered 25 lbs with the order having been carried out and therefore they shall also have to compensate for the same at purchase price, notwithstanding the usual charges that have been incurred or are still to be incurred, performance having been fully made in [illegible] the unloading of Bushehr and Basra, having remained in the said vessel, and therefore by drying out also subjected to greater loss of weight than others, which has been validated, yet the remaining 4¼ hundredweight placed to the charge of the ship's crew, as also Ceylon Cinnamon: the invoice notes . . . lbs 960: — and delivered here at the scale only . . . lbs 884:½ thus less . . . lbs 75½ — And yields percent 7 7/8 percent, for which loss of weight the ship's officers cite as reasons the uncommonly bad packaging of this fragrant bark, which, instead of the customary practice of using first gunny and then leather, is now only covered with single, loose gunny, and was thereby very subject to the thefts of the boatmen and coolies, as well as to crushing and turning to dust, and on top of all that, in the hottest part of the year when it was unloaded, and in the completely open lighters, by the fierce heat of the sun, it was forced to dry out with great severity, and thus, against all precautions taken, this loss of weight was caused, so that in this regard a gracious consideration is also most humbly requested by the ship's officers. Black Bantam Pepper: according to the invoice should have remained in the ship at Batavia . . . lbs 250,000: of which was lightened at Bandar-e Bushehr . . . lbs 100,000: and at Basra, with the contents of the sealed pepper bag, delivered at the scale in total, net . . . lbs 132,233: comes together to . . . lbs 232,233 so that there is a shortage of . . . lbs 17,767 Purchase price on account: of this, comes according to Bandar-e Bushehr proportionally to the debit of . . . lbs 7,107:— and Basra . . . lbs 10,660: — thus together the aforesaid quantity of . . . lbs 17,767:— Amounting, together with the dust that came out of it, to 7 1/8 percent in total, while the ship's officers give as reasons for this reduction that, besides the considerable drying out in the hot ship's hold and the lighters, very much was also wasted and lost through the handling and garbling of it, because it was uncommonly dusty, from which, according to an annexed declaration, 3,553½ lbs of dust had to be garbled, not counting that this shortage—although it was caused to be shipped in double gunny bags—nevertheless, through the looseness of the gunny, was noticeably scattered both in the lighters, in which it sometimes had to remain for a longer time due to contrary winds and the further distance from the ship, and during the carrying up to the Company's lodge, and moreover—notwithstanding that this was prevented as much as possible— was subject to the deft thefts of the boatmen and coolies, for which reasons a great reduction must have arisen from all these causes, and this appears even more clearly from the finding of the sample bag that was given sealed to the ship's officers by the administrator and commissioners of the island of Onrust, and on which a loss in weight and dust together, according to an annexed declaration, of percent [illegible] was discovered here; therefore the ship's officers very humbly request that this may be taken into consideration and that a favorable clearance may follow upon it.

Persia, under date 29 June 1743 From ¼ ½ from the main body, as mentioned, be placed to account, further 16th and 4th another 1½ per cent has been placed to account to be settled as compensation, approved.

Under the same date: Gum lac Siam on sticks according to the invoice shows 2000: — and the weight here 1959: ½ And thus short lb 40: ½ charged at purchase price, throwing off space per hundred that according to the ship's officers their say and our finding certainly has arisen from the bad condition of the chests, which from the great heat within shipboard and at unloading into the craft were very parted from one another and brought here, so that the crushed dust which that gum lac due to its loose stowed condition ordinarily carries with it, by the rehandling on board and at its landing delivery must have been very much spilled and lost, besides that that gum with its sticks whereon it is fastened, because of the distant location of the ship, had to remain rather long in the craft, consequently due to the terrible heat of the sun in an extraordinary manner must have dried out and necessarily caused this shortage of weight. Gum lac Bengal according to the invoice lb 1704: ¼ yet here found on the scale only 1661: ¼ falls short lb 42½ allowed at the rate of 23 shillings, and for which the same reasons in truth can be given as were adduced just now in respect of the gum lac Siam, considering it has been subjected to the same. Benzoin ordinary white there should be according to the invoice 3357: — and upon its weighing here only found 3304: — Shortage lb 53: — which deficiency is principally caused by the uncommonly bad condition of the chests, which were generally much shifted and burst apart from one another, seeing that thereby as well as by the entirely rough handling of the boatmen and coolies several cases were broken and turned to dust, besides and apart from that gum in the open craft having heavily dried out from the heat of the sun and thus produced that shortage in weight; shall GG 369 Persia, under date 29 June 1743 From ƒ validated 11 per cent all received in good condition. Of coffee beans Ceylon dictates the invoice lb 2000: — yet here delivered only 1965 ½ lb 34½ And thus short Due to [illegible] and also arisen from the dreadful heat of this climate and that of the ship's hold, whereby those beans notoriously must have dried out much.

71 371 From Persia, dated 29 June 1743 of the clove dust found, by two similar writings, the first regarding the inspection upon the arrival of the ship Duyfje, as well as during the general unloading, of the pepper dust found to a quantity of 3553½ lb, which according to the order was cast into the sea and thrown away; as well as another regarding the dust found in the sample bag also sent from Batavia, all which documents, because of their importance, are granted a place here, and first the declaration concerning the cloves. Today, the 8th of November, in the year 1742 We, the undersigned, Cornelis Sonneveld, bookkeeper and storekeeper of the office, and Hieronimus Winder, ship's bookkeeper stationed on the Honourable Company's vessel the Duyfje, declare and certify that, owing to the absence of the Under-Merchant and Secunde Willem Dumee and the ship's captain of the said vessel, Willem Noseman, by order and in the presence of the Merchant and Resident Chief Abraham van Suchtelen, successively or rather from the 5th of October until the 6th of this month, when the cloves from the cargo of the aforesaid ship the Duyfje were brought to this shore, we cleaned the same of their extraordinary dust before they were brought to the scales here; and subsequently, out of their entire quantity of 50000 written from Gamron, having been enclosed in 40 chests, with all possible care, attention, and caution, we accurately gathered an amount of 278 lb of dust, making 5/5 stivers per hundred, and packed it properly in a double canvas bag, further sealing its top binding with the Honourable Company's and our signets, and handling everything concerning it carefully and with the utmost attentiveness; and because this contains the pure and sincere truth, we are at all times, whenever it may be required, prepared to confirm this our statement under oath.

375 From Persia under date 29 June 1743 Herewith the affairs of Bassoura also being concluded, after which the Lord Commander proceeded to those of Boucher, which first brought into consideration the request of the Commissioner to be allowed to obtain authorization for the garbling of cinnamon, which request having been taken into consideration, the same was granted license thereto whenever such was highly necessary, however in such manner as squares with the recently received highly esteemed order of their Right Excellencies, namely when the same is moldy or mixed with thick and scentless wood, but not to have the coarse picked out from the fine cinnamon, as to our grievous regret was done by our brokers according to what occurred through their Right Excellencies by letter of 30 September 1742. Meanwhile, as was further communicated, it has been accepted that the restitution of the 90 tomans previously extorted from the broker Natta and the Commissioner's first servant Sjambe, who at the same time holds the office of interpreter, on account of a claim made against them, which was set down more circumstantially in our resolution of 16 January last, has taken place; and further attention was paid to the persistent request of the assistant there, Huybert van Poot, for his discharge from this directorship, whereupon it was deemed proper and resolved to defer that person's request until the new Commissioner shall depart thither, at which time one from among the clerks on hand will be sent thither for his replacement. And lastly, by the gentleman there was also rendered the finding of all the merchandise which from the below-mentioned vessel Het Duyfje 377 From Persia under date 29 June 1743 Duyfje have been discharged, and what was found regarding their condition, and upon which such resolution was taken as is made known with each entry to be taken care of below. Finding of All such merchandise as by order of the Honorable Worshipful Mr. Simon Clement, Merchant and Provisional Commander of the Persian Directorship and dependencies thereof, were unladen from the Honorable Company's ship Het Duyfje and consigned as well as delivered to the Junior Merchant and First Commissioner the Honorable Jacob van Schoonderwoert, together with the assistant and ad interim second ditto Huybert van Poot, consisting in quantity and quality as follows, namely: Packs From Persia under date 29 June 1743 torn ... request against cash fl. 20: 8:- the ... placed, the profiteurs thereof to be brought into cash by the Fiscal.

In the Pack No. 659 a little stained, and of which the ship's officers can allege no other reason than that such must have already happened before receipt. Sundry goods Cloves according to invoice in 30 chests lb net 5000:- Here at the scale 4887 1/2 Ergo short lb 112 1/2 Being 2 1/2 percent, and the officers present as reason for this deficiency that it must have been caused partly by too severe drying out, and partly by the bad condition of the chests, through the cracks of which sometimes something runs through, besides which also 3 to 4 chests were found extraordinarily dusty, and out of them gathered a quantity of 19 lb dust, which remained unreckoned. Of this 1 38/100 percent, the officers... Nutmegs according to invoice in 30 chests net 5000:- Here at the scale 4931 1/2 Ergo short pounds 68 1/2 Being 1 38/100 percent, of which the officers bring as reason that such must certainly have occurred through the volatilization of the lime that sits around and upon it, as well as drying out in a hot hold and crushing, etc. Cinnamon according to invoice in 40 bales lb net 3200:- Here at the scale lb 3327:- Wherefrom deducted the tare at 6 lb per bale 240:- Comes net lb 3087:- Ergo short lb 113:- Being fully 3 3/32 percent, of which the officers come to allege as reason that this deficiency notoriously must have taken its origin from the severe drying out of that aromatic bark in a hot hold, and the spilling of the coarse dust that here fell through the bad packaging of those sacks.

407 From Persia, dated 29 June 1743 A scarcity of fully 3/8 per cent; this deficit we may fairly attribute to the considerable drying out which this aromatic fruit is subject to at all times and especially in this stifling hot climate, besides that during its sale and through handling, crushing, and trampling occurs; it is therefore requested that the former reasons adduced may be recognized as sufficient, and that by the subsequent [illegible] cannot well be prevented, wherefore it is requested that the old adduced reasons be acknowledged as sufficient and this deficit may be graciously remitted.
