On this day, the 18th of June in the year sixteen hundred and eighteen, there appeared before me, Ewout Henricxzoon Craen, notary public, admitted by the Court of Holland upon nomination of the city of Leiden, and before the witnesses named hereafter, Ysaac Allerton, tailor, residing within the city of Leiden, aged about 30 years.

At the request and instance of Niclaes Claverly, tobacco-pipe maker, likewise residing within the aforesaid city, he testified and declared, upon his conscience and the salvation of his soul, in place of an oath, to be true that about a year and a half ago he made for the requester a crimson-grey cloth cloak, which he, the deponent, had had dyed for the making of the same, and that he, the deponent, has good knowledge that the said cloak was worth at least as follows, namely:

For 4 ells and three-quarters of cloth, the ell with the dyeing at 9 guilders, comes to 42 guilders 15 stuivers; for 54 ells of gold cord used on the said cloak, at 4 stuivers the ell, comes to 10 guilders 16 stuivers; for 2 ells of serge for lining, at 24 stuivers the ell, comes to 2 guilders 8 stuivers; for three-quarters of grey satin for trimming, at 18 schellingen the ell, comes to 4 guilders 1 stuiver; for one lot of silk with canvas for stiffening the collar-band and other things, 14 stuivers; for the making of the cloak with the mending, 4 guilders. Sum total: 64 guilders 14 stuivers. I say: sixty-four guilders and fourteen stuivers.

Of which the deponent has the better knowledge, since he himself bought various materials for the said cloak on behalf of the requester. The deponent further declared to have good knowledge that the requester paid considerably more for his said cloak, and that he has since worn or used it very little.

Declaring nothing further, the deponent offered to confirm the foregoing under solemn oath if necessary and if required in case of recollement (recolement), of which the requester requested one or more deeds.

Thus done within Leiden at the house of me, the notary, in the presence of Digory de Pryst, hatter, and Jan Fredericxzoon, bargeman, as credible witnesses required hereto together with me, the notary. Isaac Alerton [signed]. Mark set by the hand of Digory de Pryst. Mark set by the hand of Jan Frederixzoon aforesaid. E.H. Craen, notary public, subscribed, 1618.
