Decree to the district administrator of Bihać: General [Damian Hugo] Count of Virmont—may God end his days propitiously—who came to my gate that is the center of state as grand ambassador from the Roman emperor, the paragon of the great commanders of the community of Messiah, sent a sealed petition to my threshold of felicity [about the following matter]: It is written and recorded in the imperial letter of agreement (ʿahdnāme-i hümāyūn) that it shall be lawful to free the captives who are found in possession of people in an appropriate way with the payment of a potential price that is acceptable and reasonable; in case no agreement is reached with the owner of a captive and a disagreement occurs, the notables shall intermediate between the two parties. [The ambassador] reported that a person named Plasnič , a resident of the Croatian land from among the subjects of the aforesaid Roman emperor, fell prisoner during the war. You are the aforesaid [administrator]: Plasnič is by you and your captive. Although his liberation was required in return for a reasonable price according to the imperial letter of agreement, you not only withheld the Muslim prisoner and one-hundred sixty golden pieces that were sent to you in exchange for the aforesaid prisoner, but you also demanded an excessive amount of money and did not release the captive. You transgressed in this way in violation of the imperial letter of agreement. [The ambassador] requested my imperial decree for you to exchange, in the described way, the Muslim prisoner and the gold previously sent to you for the aforesaid captive and dispatch the captive to his land. You are the aforementioned commander! It is written in the imperial letter of agreement that the release of the captives in possession of the people in return for a moderate price is lawful. The limit of moderation was breached by not being content when a Muslim prisoner and the aforesaid amount [of gold] were delivered [to you] in exchange and by demanding additional money. In this way, the conditions of the imperial letter of agreement have been breached. My illustrious edict has been issued that, as declared, after receiving the aforesaid amount of money and the [Muslim] prisoner, no violation shall be committed by demanding more, and [the captive] shall be delivered. So have I commanded! January 3 to January 12, 1720
