Antonius Deusing was born in Mörs (in the region of Kleve) in 1612.
He studied at the Gymnasium Illustre in Harderwijk and was enrolled as a student in Leiden in 1631.

 Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory - Liberty coffee shop, Harderwijk
Harderwijk has the feel of a small seaside resort (though completely inland - look on a map!) and a Dolfinarium, the reason most people visit; and despite the toe-curling 'tricks' the animals are made to perform to suitably cheesy music tracks at feeding time displays, it's worth seeing.
Not too far from the Dolfinarium, on the corner half-way up Vijhestraat, is what we consider the better of Harderwijk's two coffeeshops (see Uzay for why).
Though a lick of paint would not go amiss here, Liberty has a pleasantly lived-in, mainly brown, decor with a plain wooden floor and wooden chairs except for padded stools at the bar area.
