King Frederick II of Denmark to Hans Lindenov, commander of Bergenhus: has been informed that a citizen from Hamburg has traded illegally in the Faroes, and orders the Bergen citizen who currently has a license for the Faroese trade [Magnus Heinason] to take him prisoner and bring his ship to Bergen, where his case shall be judged upon.

Skanderborg

King Frederick II of Denmark to Christoffer Valkendorff: after the Faroes have been given to Copenhagen citizens, the previous license holder Magnus Heinason has come to him and complained about the difficulties he had because of illegal competition from a merchant from Hamburg, whom he had captured and taken to Bergen, and therefore he still had many outstanding debts on the islands. As he has been an honest citizen, he should keep his license for the Faroes. Also about illegal sailings of men from Holland.

King Frederick II of Denmark to Christoffer Valckendorff: has received the complaints of the Faroese about a lack of imported commodities, whereupon Magnus Heinason has excused himself for arriving to the islands too late after the Hamburg merchants, and that the need cannot have been so high since he left a large quantity of flour on the islands the year before.

King Frederick II of Denmark to Christoffer Valckendorff: Jochim Thim, the royal factor in Hamburg, who has a license to trade in the Faroes, has appeared before the king together with Magnus Heinason, who held a license before and would like to keep it. Because the Faroese have often complained about the lack of ships and imported commodities, it is decided to let them share a license, together with a citizen from Copenhagen.
