Anonymous to king Frederick II of Denmark: Claus Jacobsen from Flensburg has asked for a license for Wapenforde, which is currently in use by Paul Lindeman from Hamburg, but the king would be better off giving it to his own subject. Furthermore, Hamburg merchants are hindering Bremen merchants in two harbours, and are trying to establish a monopoly on trading in Iceland.
