On Sunday December 20, 1767, at 11 AM, the governor received a written report from harbor master Voll about his visit to an English ship the previous day. The report was addressed to Governor David Boelen, director of the coast. Following a Political Council decision, harbor master Voll and bookkeeper Abraham Donglas had visited the English brig Swallow. They informed the captain about the governor's understanding of the reasons why the ship needed to come to this location. They offered the captain to sail to Bonthani, which he reluctantly accepted under specific conditions. These conditions were that he would not lose the protection he had sought and that the location would remain under the governor's authority. The captain also declared he had no money.
