THE ENGLISH AMBASSAGE a.d. 



1406. 



was not permitted to conveigh the sayd goods, out of 

 that porte, unto any other place of the land of Prussia, 

 either by water, or by lande, under the payne of the 

 forfeiting of the same : but was enjoyned to sell them 

 in the very same porte, unto the Prussians onely and 

 to none other, to the great prejudice of our English 

 marchants. 



Item, that after the arrivall of the sayd English 

 ambassadours in the land of Prussia, it was ordayned, 

 that from the eight day of the moneth of October, in 

 the yeare of our lord 1405, all English marchants what- 1405. 

 soever should have free liberty to arrive with all kindes 

 of their marchandise in whatsoever port of the land of 

 Prussia, and to make sale of them in the said land, as 

 hath heretofore from auncient times bene accustomed. 

 Also sundry other commodious priviledges unto the 

 realme of England were then ordayned and established : 

 as in the indentures made for this purpose it doth 

 more manifestly appeare. 



Item, the said English ambassadours being arrived 

 in the land of Prussia, demanded of the said Master 

 generall, a reformation and amends, for the damages and 

 injuries offered by the Prussians unto the liege people 

 of our sovereigne lord and king, written in fifteene 

 articles, which losses amounted unto the summe of 

 4535' nobles. 



Item, the said Master generall, besides the articles 

 exhibited unto our soveraigne lord the king (as it is 

 above mentioned) delivered unto the sayd ambassadours 

 divers other articles of certaine injuries offered (as he [I. 155.] 

 sayth) unjustly by English men, unto his subjects, 

 which amounted unto the summe of 5100. nobles. 



Item, it was afterward concluded, that upon the first 1406. 

 of May next then insuing, namely in the yeere of our 

 Lord 1406. or within the space of one yeare immediatly 

 following there should bee made a convenient, just, and 

 reasonable satisfaction, for all molestations unjustly offered 

 on both partes, as well on the behalfe of our soveraigne
