This text appears to be about Dutch colonial military operations in East Indies in 1859. The governor of Celebes (modern Sulawesi) and its dependencies, Governor Schaap, wrote about military actions against Bonian ships, while allowing trade vessels to move freely. He mentioned that if local rulers did not meet government demands after the rainy season, troops would be sent to Badjoa. If Wadjo declared they were not enemies, their residents and properties along the riverbank would be protected. The governor requested written confirmation that Wadjo wanted to remain friendly and sign an alliance treaty. He promised to welcome their representatives in Macassar.
The document was signed by Schaap as Governor of Celebes and dependencies, and countersigned by a Government Secretary.
