Bremen

Gerdt Gerbade, Hinrich Albers and Albert Koster to Bremen: respond to the prohibition to sail to the harbour Stickingsholm in Iceland, for which they had received a license. Contrary to what the Oldenburg merchants claim, Stickingsholm is a different harbour from Neswage, and that the single ship of 35 last which the Oldenburg merchants use to sail to Iceland is not big enough to meet the demands of the locals. As they have already prepared their ships for this year's journey, they ask permission to use their rightful license at least for one more year.

Merchants who trade with Ruteforde to Hamburg: relate how they lost two ships in the last years, which forced them to leave their goods on Iceland for four years, and couldn't retrieve them because of the bad weather.
