Hamburg

Merchants who trade with Kibbelwick to Hamburg: write that the council has decided last year that the Haneforde merchants have to deposit 750 mark, which the Kibbelwick merchants claim they owe them for freight money, but that they refuse to do this and are continuously obstructing the judicial process, and ask the council not to tolerate this anymore.
