Ioannes DANTISCUS to Ermland (Warmia) Chapter
Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński), 1539-04-28

English register:

In his letter from March 5, Dantiscus recommended that the Chapter grant Rafał Konopacki (von Konopat), absent at the time, the canonry vacated by the deceased Felix Reich, on the basis of the appointment the Pope ceded to the Queen [Bona Sforza].

At present Konopacki is setting off for the Chapter, so Dantiscus once again offers his vote in favour of giving him the canonry, and also, due to Konopacki’s numerous duties in the King’s [Sigismund I Jagiellon’s] service, he asks that the Chapter relieve him of the obligation to reside in Frauenburg (Frombork).
