The widow and companions of the deceased Johan Munsterman to Bremen: state that Joachim Kolling has acquired a license for the harbour Kummerwage in Iceland by exploiting their bad luck, since they have lost a ship three times, and therefore were not able to visit the harbour in the last three years, although they have sailed there for over 100 years, and that therefore Kolling has no right to trade there.

Bremen
Johan Koster and Evert Hoveman to prince-archbishop Henry III of Bremen: complain that merchants from Bremen were driven from Kummerwage by Oldenburg merchants after the shipwreck of Johan Munsterman and by Hamburg merchants from other harbours. Last year the Bremen skipper Dirick Vasmer, who was on his way to Neswage, suffered damage to his ship and had to return to Bremen, and therefore it is feared that other merchants will use this opportunity to take over this harbour as well. Therefore, the bishop is asked to mediate at the Danish court to secure Neswage for Bremen.
