English translation
The administrator and committee members reported to the meeting that today, a certain quantity of Rince and French wines, recently brought in by the fiscal agent in loco from the flute ship Stavenesse, was publicly auctioned and sold to the highest bidder and declared forfeited and confiscated by the Council of Justice on July 2nd of last year before the French Company,[82] and that, because of their poor constitution, the others should not have been allowed to obtain more than the French wines amounting to 20 Rdr. the half-price, and the Rince wines no more than 15.5%, as discussed, it was approved, for the aforementioned reason, to allow the aforementioned wines to be sold to the buyers. Thus resolved in the Castle of Good Hope, date of issue.
