Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine amice et frater observatissime.

Salutem plurimam et omnis boni continuum incrementum.

Probari Paternitati Vestrae Reverendissimae, quae in Rome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy See⌊UrbemRome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy See⌋ scripta sunt, gaudeo. Quandoquidem alius se cer... illegible⌈...... illegible⌉tior nuntius non offerebat, ante octo dies in urbem litterae missae sunt.

Quod scribit de inhibitione hic obtenta, quid sibi velit, non satis intelligo. Nam exemplum, quod misit, mandati non modo non videtur inhibere, ne secundum sententiam latam procedatur, verum praecipitur in eo, ut secundum decretum, non secundum mandatum, procedatur et solum id statuatur, quod sententiae latae sit conse ms. a(!) ⌈ee ms. a(!) ⌉ntaneum. Quae an inhibitio vocari debeat, viderit Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra et secum diligentius expendat. Sententia, cum ab ea appellatum non sit, in rem iudicatam transivit et, quantum ex abbate intellexi, qui fuit apud me Mariemburgi, quominus secundum sententiam procedatur, non recusat. Verum illo se gravari quaeritur, quod cum in sententia aliud non sit, quam, quod iuri est et aequitati consentaneum, ut restituat monasterium, si quid amplius, quam debebatur, accepit, priusquam probatum sit amplius accepisse ac probationibus responsum ad executionem procedatur. Cum se tamen abbas audiri petat, suas contra probationes Achatius Trenck (†1551), in the thirties Trenck was one of Dantiscus’ friends and supported his efforts to obtain the Ermland bishopric after the death of Mauritius Ferber; from 1523 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1544-1545 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; from 1545 its Dean; 1533-1546 administrator of the Chapter’s estates in Allenstein (Olsztyn); in 1548 and 1550 General Administrator of the Ermland bishopric (after the deaths of Ioannes Dantiscus and Tiedemann Giese) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 332; SBKW, p. 255-256)⌊AchatiiAchatius Trenck (†1551), in the thirties Trenck was one of Dantiscus’ friends and supported his efforts to obtain the Ermland bishopric after the death of Mauritius Ferber; from 1523 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1544-1545 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; from 1545 its Dean; 1533-1546 administrator of the Chapter’s estates in Allenstein (Olsztyn); in 1548 and 1550 General Administrator of the Ermland bishopric (after the deaths of Ioannes Dantiscus and Tiedemann Giese) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 332; SBKW, p. 255-256)⌋ exceptiones proferentem, quod, quemadmodum illi negari debeat, non video. Quare mandatum mitto, quo neutram partem gravatum iri persuasum habeo. Si tamen offendi posset de ipsis probationibus iam fuisse iudicialiter actum atque eas admissas per iudicem neque ab eius sententia appellatum esse, tum recte exsecutio peteretur. Sed nihil eiusmodi repertum est in iis, quae misit Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, nisi quod sententiam secuta est taxatio, post quam petitur exsecutio, non audita parte, si quid BCz, 1599, p. 428 contra taxationem opponere velit, de qua nulla fuit in sententia mentio.

Flens obtestatus est me abbas, ut exceptionibus illi suis uti tamen prius liceret, quam ad exsecutionem ventum esset. Qua de re ipse eram cum Reverendissima Dominatione Vestra acturus, si per publica negotia licuisset. Non est, quod sit sollicita Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, nulla dabitur abbati in integrum hidden by binding⌈[rum]rum hidden by binding⌉ restitutio, nam neque ea indiget, cum nulla sit eiusmodi sententia lata, quae tradi exsecutioni debeat. In [...] hidden by binding⌈[...][...] hidden by binding⌉ genere decretum est, ut quicquid amplius acceperunt, id solvant, quantum autem acceperint, amplius non est demonstratum, quid ergo exsecutioni tradi debet, cum certum non sit, quantum amplius acceperint, nisi forte esset aliqua sententia posterior hidden by binding⌈[or]or hidden by binding⌉, quam non vidi.
