(Translation.) WE, Alexander I., Emperor and Autocrat of all the Russias, &c., send our most gracious greeting to all the inhabitants of our Lordship of Jever, and give them to understand; That We, actuated by special affection for the younger line of Our Princely Family reigning in the Duchy of Oldenburg, have resolved to cede and make over the Lordship of Jever to the present representative of that line, the Duke Peter Frederick Lewis of Holstein-Oldenburg; so that the said Lordship may be reunited under one Government as formerly, and in accordance with the intention of the former ruler Count Anthony Günther, may remain united for ever. With this intention we have committed the Administration of the Lordship of Jever to the Duke of Oldenburg ever since the beginning of the year 1814, and now, in consequence thereof, we command all and each of the inhabitants of the Lordship of Jever, the officials and residents in the town and in the country, to recognise, now and from henceforward, His Highness the Duke Peter Frederick Lewis of Holstein-Oldenburg, his heirs and successors, as their only lawful Sovereign, to swear fidelity as subjects to him, and to show towards him all the obedience which they were bound to show to us, and from which, for ourselves, our heirs and successors, we now release and discharge them for ever.
