In view of the person of Wouter Corn. Mostaer[t] from Borgerraet and free resident here, on the 10th of August 1666 it was granted and permitted for three years by the E.E. Commander Z. Wagenaer and the Council at his request, that from now on only the outgoing merchants and skippers may buy such drink as is provided by the E.E. Gentlemen Mrs. in the fatherland it should be permitted for everyone to take along for his private use, namely Rhine wine, or Highland French wine without any other drink. So he was now requested, as at his time of request, by the E. Commander and Council, after the expiry of the aforementioned three years, in view (because they are well-meaning people and have not been able to find anything more suitable for this tapping for the coming friends) to grant another three years of such a charge (as aforementioned), provided that he gives Mostaert for this as a recompense to the E. Compe. shall annually raise and pay one hundred guilders, and the condition of excise duties, as otherwise established on the aforementioned 10th of August by Commander Wagenaer and the aforementioned Council, shall be promptly observed.
Thus done and resolved in the Fort of Good Hope, on the date and year aforementioned.
