Letter #4816

Ioannes DANTISCUS to Ermland (Warmia) Chapter
Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński), 1540-09-17

English register:

Dantiscus forwards the Duke’s [Albrecht I von Hohenzollern-Ansbach] reply to the Chapter [regarding the letter on mill construction and congestion on the Passarge (Pasłęka) River]. He assumes that the Chapter has received a reply to their letter of similar content. Dantiscus advises against delaying action on this matter and assures the Chapter of his support.

Ioannes Dei gratia episcopus Varmiensis

Venerabiles Domini, fratres sincere dilecti.

Quid nobis ill(ustrissimus) or ill(ustris)⌈ill(ustrissimus)ill(ustrissimus) or ill(ustris)⌉ dominus dux vicinus noster responderit ad eas, quarum superiori die exemplum ad Fraternitates Vestras dederamus, ex adiunctis habebunt. Existimamus, quod ad eundem modum Fraternitatibus Vestris rescriptum sit. Res haec, si nectendis moris haerebit et de tempore in tempus extrahetur, callum obducere posset, quod sine detrimento, ut nunc sunt homines, non fieret. Proinde, si cum responso tardabitur, ne recens esse desinat, paulo post iterum erit refricanda. Ad quod Fraternitatibus Vestris operam nostram offerimus.

Quas feliciter valere optamus.

Ex arce nostra Heylsberg, XVII Septembris MDXXXX.
