In the evening, the keys to both churches were demanded from the Jesuit, Patre Michaele Vagiz Presbytero Father Michael Vagiz, Priest besides whom only a lay brother, Matthias Odenthal, and no others of such rabble remained in the parish house and from Mr. Christopher Jagemann, the Ordinariô Loci Pastore Ordinary Pastor of the place in St. Servatius Church. Likewise, on Monday, the books which had been taken from the Lutheran citizens several years ago were demanded back. On the 20th, after midday at 2 o'clock, there was a prayer service, and on the 21st, before noon, the frequently mentioned Mr. Lippach preached again.

May He continue to rule in grace with a victorious hand over His Christian Church and its followers. Amen.
