Writ of Holy Roman Emperor Louis IV [Present-day Germany]: “Louis, the Bavarian (‘Ludwig der Baier’) confirms via a writ to the citizens of [Schwäbisch-]Hall that they only need to pay homage to him on [St.] Martin’s Day of the following year and frees […] them of any taxes and services for two years and grants/transfers to them the use of the local Jews for one year […]” [Researcher’s note: The above is a translation of a German summary of the original old text which can be found in Stuttgart’s Stadtarchiv.]
