‎Mémoire pour servir d'Instruction, à Messieurs les Interessés dans la ci-devant Compagnie d'Ostende.‎

‎"2. Anvers, 7 juillet 1761, manuscript on paper, written in ink, in-folio, (12) pp (3 blank) , written in French, neat handwriting, signed at the end in holograph by Prince de Ligne , Comte de Calesberg ( shaky signature) , Duc d'Ursel , marquis François De Los Rios , Vicomte d'Audenarde - Vicomte de Lalaing ( share holders or ''interessés ''). Written statement, original document, of the meeting organised in Antwerp on the 7th of july 1761 by Mr. D'Henssens, only director of the Compagnie d'Ostende ( co-director Meulenaer had died). The company was in liquidation since 1731 when it had to stop its activities on demand of the English in return of their acceptance of the Pragmatic Sanction of Charles VI. According this statement there was still a capital of Fl. 31463 available. Another important point was that the Austrian emperor never had paid a compensation , contrary to his promise , when he closed the company. The meeting decides that the directors must press this point. Provenance; from the archives of Charles de Proli ; photostat of a typed letter from 23 May 1945 refers to Theophile Smekens who was still occupied with Proli's bancruptcy in the late 19th c. ( see Denucé, Antwerps Archievenblad 2e reeks, 7 , 1932 nr.1). The fact that this document was in the hands of Charles Proli is a sure indication of his involvement although his name is not present here. We have other archive records relating to Charles Proli and the ''Société Impériale de Trieste pour le commerce Aziatique'' on offer. If you would be interested in acquiring several documents a more advantageous price will be applied. Please inquire via e-mail.."‎
