English translation
The chief surgeon Mr. Jan Vetteman, having cured Edmon Born of Hoorn, of a certain private illness outside the service of the E. Compe., and having received thereon the aforementioned statement of the patient in which the truth of the matter appears,319 namely that he has promised to pay the said master a sum of 40 guilders apiece, which money he is short of, and therefore without persuasion he requests the Commander and Council to receive the same from the lady. may have been transferred, so it is noted that it also merits this. The bookkeeper of this fortress, out of his power, gave this order to the aforementioned debtor on his current account, to charge the aforementioned sum in the paybooks to the common surgeon, and to credit the master, all of which appears to be in due order.
Thus done and resolved in the Fort of Good Hope, date ut ante.
