Swann and Robert Palmer nominated for deputyships; complaint by Mr. Shafto that colonel Moore had warned him to watch his words in court lest `he were sent for over to England'; deputation consisting of Messrs. Towse, Baber, '''Cambridge''', Pococke, Shafto, Oakeley and James Banckes sent to Swann to acquaint him with Shafto's complaint; Swann's protest and answer was that he would never complain to King or council of the court or any particular member thereof about anything spoken or transacted there, that he had never done so and would never do it as long as he was deputy; but in case of any misbehaviour in court either against himself or others he should apply to court and have offender(s) punished according to court orders; and only in case court should not do it, he would then, and not before apply himself to King and council; upon which court satisfied, elected him deputy for ensuring year `with his wonted salary to be payd as monyes come in'; which he accepted and took oath.
