(Witness) Misc Between 9 November 1707 and 10 March 1708 Jacobus Coetzee was banished to and returned from Batavia In 1707 after frequent petitions from his parents Sara van der Schulp and Dirk Coetzee the Council of Policy stripped him of his burgher rights, enlisted him as a soldier and sent him to Batavia for living a dishonourable and disgraceful life. At the time he had two illegitimate children with Liijsbeth Louisz who was married to Hans Jùrgen, an elderly freeburgher and neighbour to his parents.

But on arrival in Batavia, Jacobus (and Jan Croese who had been similarly banished) managed to convince the authorities they had been badly treated and were returned to the Cape with instructions in a letter dated 9 November 1707 that they be treated "kindly".

The authorities at the Cape were incensed and on the 10th March 1708 they wrote to Batavia asking that they "not always be liable to be called to account for groundless charges brought by one or other soldier, or sailor, and to reply to their pretended hardships".

Croese was shipped off to Holland but Coetzee was permitted to remain at the Cape as a soldier.5,6

Richards & Sons, Government Printers, 1896), Jacob Coetche born at the Cape, and Jan Croese, born there also, both soldiers, have stated that they have been enlisted against their will and sent away; the latter added that he had lost his hand by the bursting of a gun when watching some of the "Wynbergen" at the Cape, and was therefore unable to serve the Company. They have consequently been allowed to return to the Cape in their condition as soldiers, and to request you to become agriculturists. You are to deal kindly with them, and assist them..

To Batavia. 10th March. … To what you wrote in yours of the 9th November about the soldiers Jacobus Coetzee and Jan Croese, who arrived here with the "Barneveld," we reply that by complaining to you they did not do the right thing; the first is a person of most dishonest and depraved habits, and has been taken into the Company's service not only at the urgent request of his father and mother, but also with his own wish and consent.His parents begged hard and incessantly to send him to India, that they might no longer experience such disgrace through him, and that he might never return.It was the same with the other.He had been a Company servant, and on loan, then to one, and then to another farmer for many years, but instead of remaining with the master who loaned him, he wandered over the whole country, finding shelter among different people. He is a vile fellow - a great drunkard; and lost his one hand by the bursting of his gun, on which he had put a double charge, not as is said to protect some vineyards, but when he was drunk as usual. Besides, there were other weighty reasons for sending him away, because when drunk, he had once uttered very many slanders against the ex-governor Van der Stel.He had asked us to be allowed to settle here as freeman, but for the reasons given, and because of the lies he uttered, we ordered him to proceed to Holland.The first named we will employ some time longer, to see whether he intends to mend, then he will receive his freedom again, if his parents request it.We do not believe, however, that they will have much inclination to do so, but prefer to see him far, far away.
    We wish you to believe that we did not act in this matter as these two persons stated, and beg that henceforth you may be pleased not to listen to such complaints, unless supported by good evidence, that we need not always be liable to be called to account for groundless charges brought by one or other soldier, or sailor, and to reply to their pretended hardships..
