should goe with the sayd goods to Dunkerke or Ostend and
there deliver the same to such as should have order to receyve
them from the sayd John Scothering. And otherwise he cannot
depose.

To the 8th article of the sayd allegation This deponent saith that in the foresayd

17th of the same moneth as aforesaid, the arlate John Scothering
did advise this deponent of the lading of the sayd goods, and of their
coming for Hamburgh, and that the skipper in case the Elve
should be frozen was ordered for Dunkerke or Ostend, and that
he had taken care that John Baptista Cattawbi of Antwerpe
in case the shipp should come to fflanders should receyve the sayd goods.
And saith that in the said letter of advise the producent did desire
this deponent in case he could heare that the sayd vessell were arrived
or should arrive in fflanders, then to procure a license if it might
be for the bringing and selling of the sayd Currants or some
opart thereof att this port of London, and to write to the sayd Cornelison
