Extract from a letter on behalf of the Indies Council

at Batavia. Extract from the letter by J.P. van Braam on behalf of the Raad van Indiën, to Van Stralen at The Hague concerning the finances of the late Governor-General Jacob Mossel (1704-1761), which apparently required a decision by HM the King. The letter was sent in February 1819 and received in August 1819. 19 x 23 cm with 2 folds. 22 manuscript lines written on one side.

It appears that the addressee holds a position of influence, and the sender hopes to make good use of this influence.
