Dutch Politician Vander Heim Placed Amid Dutch Reforms
In Holland and West Friesland the States appoint M. Vander Heim counselor pensionary, not grand pensionary, as foreigners praise the title Excellency. The move curbs authority and prevents a powerful Stadtholder, while rival factions form to secure the Treasurer-General post. This letter also notes political maneuvering and palace sales as the States General plans the position’s disposition.
