Hamburg merchants who used to trade in Iceland to [Hamburg]: relate how the Danish king has forbidden them to trade with Iceland in 1601, and even though they still had a license for two years for the harbour Haneforde, they were hindered by the Danes, which left them with many outstanding debts. Therefore, it is asked to negotiate with the king for restoration of the old situation.
