Hamburg merchants who have been in Iceland last summer to Hamburg: reaction to the king's complaints that they have behaved violently and confiscated fish in Iceland, which they state is not true, as the governor himself behaved violently and refused to return the goods to them which he confiscated last winter, and forbade Icelanders to take their goods into custody.
