17 persons who have been involved in seal fishing this year and who will each pay one month's wages, totaling ƒ173.
For which each will be debited from their paybooks after due receipt, and then released from their credit, provided everything proves to be in due order.
And since their aforementioned Ed. by their general and private letters we successively continue to order to further and further the cultivation of this country with all possible diligence, and to that end to take samples of everything and to choose places that are not subject to the strong winds: In order to be able to be sown with rice and corn, so that this settlement could in time be self-sufficient in terms of sustenance, without it being necessary (as has yet to happen) to be provided for by express delivery from the Netherlands or Batavia at great expense and expense to the Egyptian Company. And having taken the same, and now and then also conducting our speculation by carefully examining the lands at this place, we found that about 2 1/2 to 3 miles251 from this fortress, in the flat stretch between the mountains of the land of Africa and this Cape (making the flat neck between Falco Bay and Taeffel Bay), there is very fine land suitable for the aforementioned cultivation, as well as the aforementioned winds are not nearly as strong as here, it has been deemed good to speculate on the same with the former a little further: also to see whether, for the liberation of the lands to be cultivated, a small redoubt of earth could be built there without considerable expense. It is also recommended, following the well-founded advice of our Lord Masters, to cut a door in place of this cape, to prevent the Hottentoes from passing freely and to provide even more protection for this piece of land, so that our animals may also graze here under their favor, and to live here more peacefully in the Hottentoes' repose.
And thus, their Honor at the 252 meeting of the Seventeen, in their latest general letter of October 30th, also wrote to us, among other things, to grant the married officials, etc., to further relieve the Company of the heavy expenses.
n on board and lodging, so that the burden of wife and children, as well as their male and female servants (who have hitherto been supported with Comps. to cover their greater expenses) might be released from their necks, And after consulting the matter we have found that this also serves to alleviate in any way the burden on their Ed., whose supporting expenses are very heavy here. Thus, after careful deliberation, it has been decided to put this matter into action the sooner the better, since the married persons present are all comfortably provided with suitable facilities for cooking and smoking, and therefore, according to Indian customs, they will receive monthly allowances as of this date, namely:
The Commander of the fort: 20 ra. of 48 stuivers each.[^253]
The sub-merchant Verburch, if he is here, 6 ra. with 4 cans of wine.
The sick-comforter: 6 ra. and 4 cans of wine.
The chief surgeon: 6 ra. and 4 cans of wine.
The assistants: 4 ra. each and 1 ra. as a subsidy. The sargeant of fort 4 Ra. end 1 on reecqe. to subsidy.
Den baes gardener 4 Ra. free.
Den Jongh Barber off Barbarot 2 Ra. free.
The boys of the married officiants 1 Ra. free.
The Commander of the fort: 20 Ra. of 48 stuijders ijder.[^254]
The sub-coopman Verburch when he is here 6 Ra. with 4 cans of wine.
The siecken grate 6 Ra. end 4 cans Thurs.
The chief surgeon 6 Ra. end 4 cans Thurs.
d' assistants each 4 Ra. end 1 on reecqe. to subsidy.
The sargeant of fort 4 Ra. end 1 on reecqe. to subsidy.
Den baes gardener 4 Ra. Free.
The young barber or barbarot 2 Rs. free.
The boys of the married officers 1 Rs. free.
The aforementioned persons and others who also desire it from the Company's warehouse will be accommodated at a reasonable price for all provisions and necessities for their money, namely:
and furthermore, according to all reasonableness and in order to be able to better benefit themselves, each will also be granted as much land in their own possession as they desire for their private gardens, and this for the first three years free, but after the expiration of that period, these gardens or lands will be subject to such taxes as are for the benefit of the Company. will then be found to be appropriate.
And so that the unmarried assistants (who had previously eaten at the Commander's table to his great undue constraint) might also be treated properly and in good order for their food allowances, it has been decided that they should eat at a common table, following the Batavian custom, and that under the supervision of one of the married officers of this fortress, they would be allowed to come there to their meals twice a day in good, proper order, at their convenient time.
Afterwards, her Ed. in the aforementioned letter they also write, for the reasons contained therein, to set up here also 1 or 2 inns for the wages and accommodation of the going and coming men who often spend the night here due to bad weather or otherwise, all on Comps. to remain and, at great expense, to be procured from the storehouse, notwithstanding that it was pre-cooked and supplemented on board, which then always resulted in double consumption. Therefore, to alleviate this, it is also understood that the aforementioned accommodation should be provided at the first suitable location outside the fortress, and a good person should be privileged to keep the inn, treating everyone according to their circumstances for their money, both with food and drink and proper accommodation, all under such reasonable conditions and in such order as will be deemed appropriate by most of the E. Compe. Furthermore, during this consultation, several requests were made from the following individuals, some of whom have served faithfully and well, and others who have provisionally replaced departed and deceased individuals, etc., it was also deemed appropriate for the aforementioned Company to encourage them to do even more good and vigilantly by benefiting from the following improvements, namely:
