• On 2 May 1816, at the request of the landowners of Wierden and Hoog Heiel, a public auction took place at the home of Gosewijn Broese in Wierden.
• The auction was for leasing plots of peatland to dig turf, located near the middle boundary post of the Notter and Waarden areas in Wierden.
• The event was overseen by:
  • Doedo Jan Lamberts, a landowner and market judge from Almelo.
  • Gosewijn Broese, the local administrator and sheriff.
  • Committee members: Jan Giervelt, Derk Waelderink, Albert Meijerink, and Jan Mulder (all builders from Wierden).
  • Notaries: Jacobus van Riemsdyk and Jan Hendrik Warnaars from Almelo.
• The auction had been publicly announced on 21 April and 28 April 1816.
• The lease terms included:
  • A fixed period of 10 consecutive years.
  • Starting on 2 May 1816 and ending on 11 November 1826 (Sint Maarten).
• The agreement was signed by the market judge, committee members, and notaries after being read aloud.

• The agreement was signed in 1825 and required the first bidder to pay a fee of 2 guilders (each guilder worth 20 stuivers).
• If disputes arose over the bids, the landlord (Verpachteren) reserved the right to immediately reclaim the land.
• Tenants had to pay a deposit of 10% (or 2 stuivers per guilder) of the promised rent within 14 days to the notary Mr. Jacobus van Aemsdijk in Almelo. Half of this covered registration and publication costs, while the other half paid the notary’s fees.
• The peat fields could be dug out by tenants but not dredged. Any undug peat and the underlying soil remained the landlord’s property after the lease ended.
• Rent payments were to be made in cash to Doedo Jan Lamberts (or his successor) in Almelo, serving as the Markten Richter (market judge) of Wierden and Hooge Hesel. Payments were split into two equal installments:
  • Half by November 11, 1816.
  • Half by November 11, 1817.
  Late payments incurred a penalty: the debt had to be paid in stronger currency (21 stuivers per guilder), and the landlord could reclaim the land without refunding any rent paid.
• The 2-stuiver deposit (from point 3) was due in one payment, and tenants could not deduct it from their rent.
• Tenants had to provide two financially reliable guarantors, approved by the Markten Richter and committee. These guarantors were fully liable for the rent and lease terms. The Markten Richter could demand payment from either the tenant or the guarantors at any time.
• If a tenant failed or refused to provide guarantors, their leased land would be immediately re-auctioned, and they would forfeit any benefits. Guarantors who backed one tenant remained liable for any additional land that tenant leased, unless they formally withdrew or were rejected by the Markten Richter and committee.
• The Markten Richter and committee reserved one hour after the auction to accept or reject bids on behalf of the landowners (Goedsheeren en Geërfdens). They could also choose to keep some plots unleased.

• The text describes the leasing of 12 agricultural plots in the area near Wierden and Rectum (a hamlet). The leases were granted to local farmers, with details on rental prices, guarantors (called "borgen"), and literacy declarations.

In November 1716, a report from Macassar listed boats under the control of Castle Rotterdam, detailing their condition and necessary repairs. The report was recorded by Jan Macassar and approved by officials including Joannes Philipus Sipman, the Governor and Director of Macassar, as well as Van Do Snippe (secretary), S. Cappon (under-merchant), and Abraham van den Anker (trade assistant).

• The Pantchallang named Casuaris:
  • Required new "feet" (likely supports or stabilizers).
  • Dimensions: 55 units long, 16.5 units wide.
  • Mast hole: 4.5 units deep.
  • Crew: 10 (strong), armed with 10 metal guns.

    • Needed repairs to the hull and some wooden parts.
  • Second boat:
    • Crew: 8, with 8 oars.
    • Needed a "calvaat slag" (type of repair).

The report also listed the owners of various boats, divided into groups:

  • Andries Raadman: owned 1 boat (25.5 units), 1 gonting (small boat, 5.5 units).
  • Cornelis Hardenberg the Elder: 1 boat (35.5 units), 1 gonting (30.5 units).

  • Joost Abrahamsz: 1 boat (5.6 units).
  • Joan de Madera and Widow Brugman: jointly owned 1 boat (6.6 units).
  • Diogo Towaris: 1 boat (25.9 units), 1 gonting (25.12 units).
• Chinese and Pernockan (another local group):
  • Onglieko (Captain of the Chinese): 1 boat (40.6 units).
  • Njaij Sittij (widow of the old Captain Ongwadko): 1 boat (15.9 units), 1 gonting (20.16 units).
  • Bappa Moessa: 1 boat (5.6 units).
  • Ongkeenko: 1 boat (5.6 units).

On November 30, 1716, a letter was sent from Macassar by a cousin of the Captain of the Chinese. The writer asked the Governor-General to excuse the kiaij marta diaija (a local official) if any mistakes were made due to forgetfulness or ignorance. The writer trusted the Governor-General to help and requested that if any favor was granted, the Captain of the Chinese—who was the writer’s brother—would come to meet them. As a gift, the writer sent only half a picol (a unit of weight) of bird’s nests, given with a sincere heart.

The letter was written on a Saturday morning, 11 Saban 1126 (in the local calendar), by a servant of the court of Banjar. It included a list of the Dutch East India Company’s (VOC) ships and other vessels anchored nearby, along with their sizes, equipment, and crews:

• The Chialoup Bonij: 60 feet long, 17 feet wide, with 8 guns and 10 crew members. It carried 6 small cannons but needed daily repairs.
• The Chialoup H Van Macassar: 60 feet long, 6 feet wide, with 10 crew members. It carried 6 small cannons and needed some deck planks.
• The Pantchallp (the guard): 9 crew members, armed with 10 small cannons.
• The Prins van Cheribon (Prince of Cheribon): 48 feet long, 11.5 feet wide, with 8 crew members. It carried 6 small cannons and 2 larger ones but needed outer planks and two chimneys.
• The Adam and Eva: Each 40 feet long, 12 feet wide, with 4 crew members. Both needed repairs to their hulls.
• The Pantchallang (the protector): 54 feet long, 14 feet wide, with 8 crew members. It carried 6 small cannons but needed a new tent, inner supports, and outer repairs.
• The Santchall: d' voorsigtigheijt (the caution): 61 feet long, 17 feet wide, with 13 crew members. Another vessel of the same name was 61 feet long, 7 feet wide, with 7 crew members.

In a letter from Macassar dated November 1716, the writer (likely a ruler) addressed the Governor-General of Banjarmasin (representing the Dutch East India Company) to propose a strong alliance. The writer, along with Padoeka Adinda Seri Sultan Bidour Aldin (also called the Raja of Bone), wished to form a "true brotherhood" with the Governor-General and his advisors. Their goal was to unite the kingdoms of Bone and Banjarmasin as one powerful realm.

The letter used a metaphor to describe the bond:

• The writer compared themselves to a body.
• The King of Bone was the backbone (or "keel," possibly meaning spine).
• The Chinese Captain (a subject of the Governor-General of Banjarmasin) was the heart.

The Chinese Captain was trusted to share the writer’s intentions—both good and bad—with the Governor-General, as he was considered the "heart" of this alliance. The letter also mentioned that a person named Kiai Marta Diaija accompanied the Chinese Captain, though the writer dismissed this individual as unimportant.

In a letter dated 30 September 1716, Abel d’k den Anker, a Dutch official in Macassar (now Makassar), explained that stopping illegal trade in the area was nearly impossible. The region had too many hidden bays and inlets where ships could hide, and he lacked the authority to prevent smuggling.

On the same date, local leaders—including the "great councilors of the empire" and elders from Tambora—formally requested the Dutch replace their current king, Jamal (also called Daing Mamangon). They asked for Prince Abdul Hasis to become the new ruler, under the same terms agreed with past kings. The Dutch, seeing no reason to refuse, approved the request but set conditions:

• Abdul Hasis had to follow all past treaties, especially the one signed by Cornelis Beernink (Governor and Director of the Dutch East India Company) on 18 April 1701. This included agreements with the kingdoms of Sumbawa, Dompo, Kalonkong, and Pekot.
• The succession rules in Article 17 of the 1701 treaty—regarding the rivalry between the houses of Abdul Baris and Daing Mamangon—had to be strictly followed.
• Under Article 19, the Dutch Governor-General and Council of the Indies in Batavia retained the power to modify the treaty if needed for Tambora's benefit.

The 1701 treaty was read aloud in Malay (written in Arabic script) to Abdul Hasis, the governors, and representatives from Bima, Dompo, Tambora, Kalonkong, and Sangar to confirm the renewal of the agreement.

On November 30, 1716, a report from Macassar listed the number of ships and boats owned by various groups and individuals. The total count included:

• Toadji, Toelang Tosoenie, and others: 10,115 ships of various types (like tosoenting, sodalima, and pamana).
• Boeginesen and Topalla: several ships, including 6 ladio.
• Wadjoresen (led by Matoa, their chief): 25 ships, with some lost or damaged.
• Europeans and Christen Mardijckers (Christian locals of mixed descent): more small ships (chialoup) but fewer large ones (pantchall).

The report noted changes from the previous year:

• 1 extra small ship (chialoup).
• 11 fewer medium ships (gontings).
• 2 fewer large ships (pantchallangs).

Reasons for these changes included:

• Michiel de Vreede (a citizen) lost his ship off the east coast of Java (not listed in the report).
• The widow of a deceased man replaced a large ship with a smaller one (~30 lasten, a unit of weight).
• A Chinese Christian, Diogo Towaris, upgraded his medium ship to a small one (not previously recorded as he arrived late last year).
• Ships were lost in rivers near Tello (1 medium, 1 large), Goa (3 medium), and from the Bougineesen (2 medium) and Wadjoreesen (2 medium).

The report warned that numbers for the Boegineesen, Macassaaren, Pellonesen, and Wadjoreesen might not be fully accurate and would need further review in 1717.
