1699réf. ABC_47411Jaffanapatnam Ceylon 1699. Folded and kept together by an orange white and blue piece of string in the left margin 1.5 cm from the edge of the leaves in the middle. Folio 33 x 21 cm. The Dutch letter is written in a neat late 17th-century cursive hand in brown ink. Contemporary copy Copia perhaps by Schenkenberg himself or by his secretary including the address on the first leaf: Rotterdam./ Aenden Edelen Heer./ Harmen van Zoelen/ oud burgermeester der stadt/ en Bewinthebber vande Oostindische/ Comp. ter Camer Aldaar.Very interesting letter by the Director commandeur of the fort and Dutch East India Company VOC station Jaffanapatnam on the northern-most coast of Ceylon now: Sri Lanka facing the Coromandel coast of India. The fort was captured from the Portuguese by Rycklof van Goens in the 1630s and was an important stronghold for the VOC presence on Ceylon during the late 17th and 18th centuries. The letter offers clear insight in the VOC policy regarding appointments nominations and commissions as well as for the required qualifications and salaries for the various functions. The letter also shows how important family ties recommendations and even favouritism and nepotism were in these matters.Matthaeus Schenkenberg was born in Batavia in 1667 as son of Hendrik Schenkenberg and Henrietta Chasteleyn. He writes that after having been chief-merchant opperkoopman for eight years he had been appointed by the high command at Batavia the hooge regeering director commandeur of the fort Jaffanapatnam Jaffna in June 1698 as the successor of Hendrik Swaardecroon with a monthly salary of 120 guilders for five years. Hardly a year after this appointment he is already dissatisfied - one of his predecessors Floris Blom who was director from 1669-1693 earned 150 guilders - and he is seeking for a following step in his career. Thats why he is writing this letter to his uncle Harmen van Zoelen or Soelen; ca. 1635-1702 hoping to be helped into a better job: a good move because Van Zoelen was one of the directors of the VOC chamber in Rotterdam and burgomaster of that city.Which is why he asks his uncle to put in a good word for him in order to obtain an appointment as for instance Governor of places like Macassar Celebes Ambon or Banda island between Sumatra and Malacca. Indeed Mattheus Schenkenberg was appointed Governor of Banda where he ultimately died on 14 June 1709 his tomb is still in existence.With faint folding lines and some pencil annotations on the first and last pages small wormholes in the left inner margins of the leaves very slightly affecting the text but not its legibility the edges are very slightly frayed and the last page is slightly browned.

réf. M53HMS Thalia “18 leagues to the North of St. Jago” 20 October 1805 and Colombo Fort 21 June completed 2 September 1806. Both Octavos ca. 23x18 cm and 25x20 cm. Each 3 ½ pp. Both addressed and sealed on the last pages. Brown ink on watermarked laid and white paper. Fold marks both letters with minor holes on the 4th pages after opening affecting several words; second letter with tears and minor holes on folds but overall very good letters. Two extensive letters giving an interesting firsthand account of the early British rule in Sri Lanka the British occupied former Dutch possessions on the island only ten years earlier in 1795. The first letter describes Cleather’s voyage to Ceylon from England on board HMS Thalia with the notes on the heat of the gun room‚ the frigate’s captain Walker Santiago Island Cape Verde where they got fresh supplies and water social life on board the ship et al. “I sleep every night in the most tantalizing situation you can possibly imagine Rayner having strung my cot in the after gun room in the midst of <…> chests of dollars to the amount of 40.000 £ which they are taking out for the Company there is 400.000 £ standing more below.” The second letter completed almost a year later gives an inside look into the life of British military and civil society on Ceylon shortly after the end of the First Kandyan War 1803-1805. Cleather praises the Colombo garrison’s chaplain Reverend W.H. Heywood in whose house he started writing the letter notes that he has dined with the “Chief Secy. Mr. Arbuthnot the 2nd personage in the Island” and mentions “innumerable” balls and suppers to which “I am constantly invited.” His regiment “is stationed about ten miles from the Fort <…> I have a small house but very comfortable near the parade & not far from a pretty little Cot.tage of Heywoods where he generally resides – for this I pay two guineas a month nothing here.” Cleather mentions that the Regiment which consists of sepoys trains a lot because it is expected to be reviewed shortly; notes on his relation with his colleague officers – Lieut.-Col. T.W. Kerr who “has an unfortunate disposition to talk scandal” Fort Adjutant Mr. Stewart officers wives and daughters and others. “I do not much … the heat and have never had a day’s illness since I landed in the Island. I had no duty for two or three months at first being laid up with hurts in my legs. This is common enough & is thought nothing of it is long since over…” Captain W.H. Cleather of the first Ceylon Regiment was educated at Exeter College Oxford and arrived in Ceylon in 1805. Through his sister Mary Littlehales to whom the letters are addressed he was a brother-in-law of Vice-Admiral Bendall Robert Littlehales 1765-1847 a participant of the Napoleonic Wars and Captain Edward Littlehales 1805-1888 a commander of HMS Dolphin on the coast of West Africa during the suppression of the slave trade in the 1840s. During his career in the British Ceylon he served in different Ceylon Regiments was the Fort adjutant at Galle Jaffna and Colombo. He took part in military actions during the Uva Rebellion 1817-1818 and for many years served as Deputy Judge Advocate in Ceylon. hardcover
