Segebad Detken to Bremen: answer to the complaint of Johan Runge about the use of the harbour Baltasound, in which Detken states that Runge's permission to use the harbour Baltasound was only given for the year 1561, and that Detken has used the same harbour for many years before. Furthermore, as there were four other harbours available which they could have used instead, there was no need for Runge to go to Norway. Therefore, it is asked that all charges are dropped.
