Docket Item 4: Draft of Official Order of the Chamber to Officer Creuzinger (25 Nov 1841)

Overview

This page contains two administrative dispositions (Verfügungen) written and signed by Reck—one expressing his opinion on the petition (a Votum), and one ordering that a copy be sent to Officiant Creuzinger for further report (an Abschriftsverfügung).

The first is Reck’s personal opinion (Votum). He records his view that: although Krückeberg’s situation is unfortunate, granting him a loan is impossible because the collateral is insufficient, and repurchasing or selling the Söhren land is undesirable.

He concludes that the petition should simply remain rejected (“bei dem abschlägigen Bescheid … bleiben”).

This was likely written in Reck’s capacity as a Kammer councillor during the evaluation phase.

After recording his opinion, Reck directed that an official copy (Abschriftlich) of the matter be sent to Officiant Creuzinger for a “baldiger gutdienstlicher Bericht”, i.e., a prompt, service-related report — specifically to obtain further information about:

the quality and location of the land (Lage und Qualität des Landes), and
the price it might fetch if sold.

This second note thus implements administrative follow-up. It doesn’t contradict the first; it supplements it by initiating the next procedural step.

So traurig die Lage des Krückeberg seÿn mag, da sehe ich doch nicht ein, wie ihm zu helfen. Ein Darlehn zu bewilligen, wo die Sicherheit so unzureichend, geht nicht an. Eben so unerfreulich erscheint es mir, daß das angekaufte Land in der Söhre wieder gekauft werde. Mag Krückeberg, wenn er überhaupt der Schulden wegen darüber disponiren kann, dieses Land anderweit zu verkaufen suchen. Meiner Ansicht kann es bei dem abschlägl[igen] Bescheid nur lediglich sein Bewerden behalten. Bbg. 25. Novbr 41. Reck RC. Abschrift dem Of.
