- Wolfert Webber pltf. vs Judith Verleth, the daughter, deft. Pltf. appears in Court complaining of violence, force and abuse committed against him by deft. and her sister, Sarah, last week in his house; striking him, in his own house and flinging stones at him; requesting that said deft. be ordered to let him remain in peace in his own house. Deft. denies that she evr gave pltf. any trouble; complains that he berated her for a whore and strumpet, and threatened in his own house to strike her with the whip, as he daily does his wife; that he assaulted her, bruising and dragging her arm, and kicked her sister so that her hip is blue. Parties were ordered to prove their complaints and settlements on both sides by the next Court day, and further to leave each other unmolested. Webber was fined 12 stivers on account of fulminating lies, etc., in presence of the Court. June 28, 1655. Ibid, Vol. I, p 326-327.
