Danish term or phrase: Patent
I'm wondering what the word "Patent" means in a death record???? In the records of Helsingør Domkirkes Sogn for 1813, there are three consecutive deaths listed that include "Patent" numbers, while no other deaths that year include such information, for example:

Dødsdagen: d. 17de December 1813. Anders Jensen Lind, Pat. N. 182. Færgemand her i Byen, han blev skudt med en Kopper Baad, hans Patent No. 182. 29 Aar.
Dødsdagen: d. 17de December 1813. Peter Larsen Buck, Pat. N. 32. Færgemands Søn her i Byen, han blev skudt med samme Kopper Baad - Patent No. 32. 19 Aar.
Dødsdagen: 20de December 1813. Niels Poulsen Weile, Pat. No. 36. Færgemand her i Byen, Patent No. 36. 66 Aar.
