The journal has side notes giving locations and dates beginning in June 1615, ending July 1617. The date in the side note on p. 52 has a misprint and should read 1617, since the last comment on p. 52 reads "hadden dese onse reyse volbracht in twee jaren en achthien dagen" (we completed this journey in two years and eighteen days). Last line on p. 51 records the death of Jacob Le Maire on 31 November 1616 on board the ship Amsterdam.
