Translation and comment by Chris DeVeth, of Bruxelles, Belgium:
"Dit is Marcel en onze knecht die op den auto zitten.
Degene die binnen zit is een Kalant."
"This is Marcel and our manservant who sit upon the car.
The one that sits inside is a client."
Observe that the “k” of “kalant” is written in uppercase.
This is very common in Flanders. I see it often when the
name Moeykens and Tack are written: it looks like
MoeyKens and TacK. I have many handwritten examples of it ! |
