[Klingstrup]

[Governour Johan Bockholt of Iceland to Hamburg]: explains how he has forbidden Hamburg merchants Simon Schmidt, Matthias Eggers, Jochim Focke and Jochim Warneke to use the harbours Ost- and Horneforde, after complaints of Bremen merchants Bernd Losekanne and Christoffer Meyer. However, they have traded there nevertheless, and therefore he asks again to prevent them from using the mentioned harbours.
