while investigating the belongings of the valet Glasow, Captain von Oppen and myself found among other things a completely new signet seemingly belonging to your Grace. Following his Majesty's orders, I therefore examined together with Captain v. Oppen where he (Glasow) might have obtained this newly crafted signet; his (Glasow's)justification was that he'd found it among the things he'd recently received from Your Grace. As his Majesty would like to know the truth in this matter, I wanted to ask you in the spirit of friendship to tell me without any bother whether you may have lost one of your signets; for the one used seems to be equal exactly the one Your Grace has used to seal the last dispatch to Glasow. Hoping for a quick reply, I have the honour of remaning in steadfast friendship, your Grace's faithful friend and servant,

As you can see, not that much overall new content, but some, including Glasow's excuse for having Fredersdorf's signet.
