Confirmation by the Castellan of Przemyśl, Mikołaj Odnowski, of a property donation to Maciej Hydek

Mikołaj Odnowski of Fulsztyn, Castellan of Przemyśl, Starosta of Lwów and General Starosta of the Ruthenian lands. We announce by the tenor of this letter, to whom it may concern, to all together and to each one separately, present and future, who shall receive knowledge of this letter. That having appeared personally before the present office and acts of the Lwów castle, the honorable Stanisław, sub-vice-voivode of the Lwów suburb, sound in body, sound in mind, and being in his right senses, not coerced nor compelled, nor misled by any error or mistake, but voluntarily, freely, and explicitly, gave and donated perpetually and irrevocably to the honorable Maciej Hydek, a Lwów burgher, his cousin, his house between the house or manor of the magnificent lord Mikołaj Odnowski, Castellan of Przemyśl and Starosta of Lwów on one side, and the house of the prudent Szloma, a Jewish minter, on the other side, as well as the farmstead or manor with a garden between the garden of the said Maciej Hydek on one side and [...] by the street which leads to the mill of the venerable Lwów canons, lying above the Lwów castle, with all hereditary [rights] of all goods, movables and immovables, all things and the entire household equipment, generally by detail and specifically by generality, in no way failing, possessed and acquired, from all previously imposed legal obligations and kinships, and from none of his benefits and acquisitions of contingent time, both for himself and for his capable successors, to the same mentioned Maciej Hydek, along with the meadow belonging to the said farmstead, with pits, conduits, inheritance of goods, and with all right, jurisdiction, and ownership, and hereditary title, reserving nothing of the right, jurisdiction, and ownership, and of the more burdensome use and profits in the mentioned things for himself and his legal successors, but explicitly, as broadly and far as the ancient inheritance of all goods extends within its boundaries and borders, and as he himself held, had, and possessed them, for the said Maciej Hydek and his successors to hold, have, and perpetually possess all the mentioned goods, both movable and immovable, and to turn them to their desired profits. With the addition of this condition, if he does not happen to recover from this infirmity with which he is afflicted. As well as the entire case and lawsuit and progress regarding and the effect of the court for the house attacked against the prudent Szloma, the Jewish minter, and his companions regarding sixteen silver belts, an engraved bowl, a quilt, and other things contained in the disputed matter in the court records of the Lwów suburb before the Lwów suburban court, he brought and conducts, through [...] towards the resignation to Stanisław of Sprowa, voivode [...] fallen, and by whether they were then for revocation for the shaking nearest future accepted and transferred and moved the new case onto Maciej Hydek himself completely under the same state of affairs. At the same time, he gave and gives to him in any way, as more fully and clearly the said goods require, actual introduction through a land bailiff before witnesses sworn for this introduction, and with all this, Stanisław the sub-vice-voivode with his successors is obliged before the above-mentioned to confess, guarantee, and release, to silence the said Maciej Hydek with his successors from all disturbance and legal claims on the part of all persons through prescription or law, as they will be ready to hold against any person present, as far as the dowry of Maciej Hydek will clearly and profitably need, under land penalty without any renunciation escaping from it. And no relations of kinship and closeness of the said Stanisław the sub-vice-voivode towards the said Maciej Hydek [can] be raised [that could] annul this service under a penalty of six hundred florins of money, regarding which penalty, if any of his successors erring dared to violate [...], it is to have validity explicitly only under the penalty of an oath. As a testimony to us three hundred florins [...] to be paid. For which it was memorably paid. In testimony of which, the seal was appended hereto. Done and given at the Lwów castle, on the morrow, Saturday after the nearest feast of Saint Valentine, in the Year of our Lord one thousand five hundred and forty-one.
