Very rare pamphlet with measures and regulations concerning the plague outbreak in Deventer. It states for example that people aren't allowed to lodge in inns where infected persons are or where people died of the plague. Other regulations concern the burying of the dead and the wages of the carriers, gravediggers and the people who pray for those who passed away. We have located only one other copy in the Athaneumbibliotheek, Deventer.
In very good condition, closely trimmed at the fore-edge margin. Not in Knuttel; STCN; WorldCat.
