Duke Adolf of Holstein-Gottorp to king Frederick II of Denmark: states how he had sailed to Iceland the year before, but was forbidden to do so this year, and therefore almost ran out of stockfish. As merchants from Bremen and Stade have gotten licenses, he requests one for a harbour in Southern Iceland as well.
