This morning, at the meeting of the Police Councils, the Governor was occupied with several documents officially delivered to the fiscal, Mr. C.J. Simons, no. 62, on behalf of Pieter Claasz Snel, skipper in the service of the E.Compe., on the ship IJtershem, currently moored here, regarding various actions and journeys he made during the voyage.
Also present at the aforementioned meeting was Catharina Bakkers, wife of the free brickmaker Laurens Retersz of Colding, who was questioned by the fiscal about malicious desertion.63
Friday, the 28th.
And the skipper, Pieter Claasz Snel, appeared at the police meeting. Since he had little or no excuse to offer against the accusations against him, it was understood that he would board the ship Waddingsveen and sail with it to Batavia, without pay, to answer for his case before the high government or the Council of Justice. Sybert Car[s]tensz of Amsterdam, skipper of the yacht Tamboer, took his place on the ship IJtershem.
