Moin, Reynhard,

güssern lees' ick'n oole Oorkond,  oongefäähr 15. Joorhunnert.
Dat geiht ümm dat "herrschaftliche Fischereirecht" [Erzbishof von
Bremen] an uns Fluus "Oste":

* "Item: alle strome, wathere, rinnere yn der vorgede to vorde
[Bremervörde] belegen, hören to dem flate vorde, de syn wyth unde breth,
und alles wat opp den vorde to richtende."

"Item: de Osten strom baven, dar de erst sprinkt und man den vysken kann
unde mach, horet wende  an de Elve und vort an den solten Szee dem
Stifte von Bremen."

"Item: De Ostenstrome baven und benedden Vörde, wente an den solten see
höret dem Stifte. Dor mag nemandt fischen ost were schlan buten der
herschupp wissen; sunder etlicke gude menner delen sick de fischereye to
beneven ehren erve und gude. So denn de osten en vischrick strom ist." *

Mi dücht, watt datt woll 'n aule Oort von "Missingsch" is, or is door
heel keein Platt mang?

*... ost were schlan..*: dat kann ick ne begriepen?!

Greutens
