Ioannes DANTISCUS to Ermland (Warmia) Chapter
Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński), 1538-04-18

English register:

Dantiscus is sending a copy of his correspondence with the Cantor [Johannes Tymmermann] and asks for a resolution of the dispute over whether such reservations may be placed on pay; if the Chapter releases Dantiscus from his oath, he too will be able [to do that]. He urges that the Chapter persuade the Cantor to act justly, out of consideration for the safety of the bishop’s income.
