THE MISSING MANUSCRIPTS.
Assessor Swedenborg’s heirs or not, must the more be pre
sumed to have been done by their consent, as no objection,
as far as the Documents show, can be found to have been
raised against it during the long period of above fifty years
which has since elapsed ; and from the conditions on which
the said Documents were thus delivered to the Academy, and
there received in conformity with a receipt given for them
by the Secretary of the Academy, there seems no other con
clusion to be drawn, than that it belongs to the Academy to
decide how far the Documents thus entrusted to the Academy
ought to be delivered up. The Supreme Court therefore con
siders it right to confirm the decision which the Inferior Courts
have come to, wherein an alteration has humbly been sought,
and respecting which litigation has been carried on. Decided
by His Majesty’s Supreme Court, and given at the Palace of
Stockholm, the 10th of September, 1828.
"HIS MAJESTY has been graciously pleased to cause the
Documents in this cause to be laid before him, together with
the pleas and objections humbly adduced by the parties against
each other, and graciously deems it just to confirm the Decree
promulgated by the Supreme Court ; and that the Plaintiff
shall compensate the Academy of Sciences the costs of this
Decree in the sum of Seven rix-dalers Banco, to which all
parties concerned have humbly to conform themselves.
"Under His Majesty’s Privy Seal,
(L. S.) "RUDM. BERGENSTRALE.
"
Decree between A. Berg, Court Distiller, and His Majesty’s
Academy of Sciences.
"I attest that the above is correctly copied,
"(Signed) JACOB BERZELIUS
"Secretary to the Royal Academy of Sciences."
