   Through indisposition I have been unable to answer you sooner; am now only in fair health. The tailor from breda with his wife and still other company, together 10 persons large and small, set sail for New Netherland on Tuesday last; may God be with them. They have good weather but the wind has changed and become contrary; I fear that they will have to seek shelter in England. I could still use a smith's helper and a brickmaker. A ship is being made ready which I hope will lie ready to sail in a month; it would be well if the men could go across in that ship, but this you must know that there is a smith in the country but no brickmaker, so that the brickmaker must have a boy or other help, unless he could burn brick alone. Vale.

Geertje Mannix, widow, and two children. (Compare to the note in her migration note "Dec. 28, 1641, Geertje Nannincks, widow of Tjerck Hendricksz, married Abel Reddenhasen, a young man from Waldeck, who died before Aug. 2, 1644, when she sold her house at New Amsterdam." If both are correct, she arrived in Rensselaerswyck before Dec 1641).
