Note (Additional information about the record)
- The note on the guard suggests that this is an earlier petition by Asger that failed, or simply was not acted upon, and necessitated the eventually successful petition in 1431. Although there seems to be no reason to support it, the guard suggests a date of 1428. It seems unlikely that it would be of a significantly different date from SC 8/26/1254.
