Reverendissime domine, domine colendissime. Officiosissimam servitutis meae commendationem.

Mihi quoque videtur idem, quod Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae, genus hoc appellationis coram notario quae fit, admittendum non esse, nisi doceri legitime posset a iudicibus appellationi non esse delatum. Ceterum valde frequentantur hoc tempore appellationes eiusmodi, nam dominus Adrianus Fridewalt (Adrian Fredewald) (†after 1550), 1517-1530 Thorn alderman; 1530-1551 - councillor (MIKULSKI 2001, p. 191)Adrianus FridwaldAdrianus Fridewalt (Adrian Fredewald) (†after 1550), 1517-1530 Thorn alderman; 1530-1551 - councillor (MIKULSKI 2001, p. 191) produxit fortasse quattuor, quae mihi visae sunt admodum temerariae et frivolae, hoc ipsum fecit Rach or RaclRachRach or Racl quoque.

Itaque scriptum est ad dominos consiliarios, ut de hoc genere appellationum cognoscerent sententiamque suam perscriberent, quantum eis tribuendum existiment, a quibus quod erit rescriptum, habiturum auctoritatem puto. Contra Citizens of Elbing ElbingensesCitizens of Elbing qui agat, nemo est.

Itaque cras eos absolutos iri spero. Si quid praeterea postulaverint, id quoque fortassis obtinebunt. Ego illius defuturus non sum, sed neque causae relictae viduae domini Schewke, dummodo prius adversa quoque pars audiatur, a qua nemo adhuc venit. Est hic legatus Francis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoyregis GallorumFrancis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoy. Qua de causa venerit, si scire volet, ex reverendissimo domino certior fieri postulet. Nam est dissimilis ei causa, propter quam venerat etiam reverendissimi domini cardinalis Augsburg (Augusta Vindelicorum), city in Germany, BavariaAugustamAugsburg (Augusta Vindelicorum), city in Germany, Bavaria nuntius. Deum precor, ut Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram diu servet incolumem. Cuius me gratiae commendo.
