and that for divers weekes aafter the sayd shipps arrivall at Boston aforesayd
there was noe beere aboard the sayd shipp, and that during that tyme hee and
all the company aboard the sayd shipp dranke nothing on shipp board but wine
And further to this article hee cammot depose./

To the 6th article hee saith that the sayd Thomas Smith told this deponent that hee
saw upon or about the fifth of July 1654 bills sett up at Boston arlate for
the sale of the wynes seized in the shipp Saint John Baptist which expressed that
the sayd wines were to be made sale of at the Castle Taverne in Boston
whereupon the sayd Smith and this deponent went to the sayd Taverne and attended
there to have seene what price the sayd wynes were sold at and to have
advanced them in the sale to their true value, and after this deponent and the
sayd Smith and others who stayed with them to the same purpose had bin neere two howers
at teh sayd Castle Taverne one Mr Edward hutchinson who liveth
in Boston aforesayd came to the sayd Smith and this deponent and their other company
who stayed there to the purpose aforesayd, and asked them why they were not
at the sale of the sayd wines seized in the Saint John Baptist, whereto the sayd Smith
and this deponent and the rest of the Company made answere that they expected them
to be sold there at the Castle according to a bill sett up to that purpose
whereto the sayd hutcheson replyed, the bill is altered ad it is
put in that they are to be sold at the shipp Taverne
and withall sayd that the arlate Captaine Levert had
by his high demands of halfe money ready pay and the other halfe in good
bills to be paid at London soe beaten off all buyers that noe body for want
of ready money could bid any considerable value for them and soe noe
body bidding (as the sayd hutchinson affirmed) above fifty shillings a [?puncheon GUTTER]
or thereabouts, the sayd Leveret sayd hee would give fifty five shillings a
punchion (which is eight pounds five shillings a tonne) and noe body bidding soe
much in respected of the difficulties put upon payment videlicet to pay ready money halfe
and bills for the other halfe, the sayd Leveret had disposed of them to his owne use
at the sayd rate of 8 li - 5 s a tonmne, And further hee cannot depose
saving hee saith that if the sayd Leveret had exposed the sayd wines to
sale at Boston upon fayre and equall termes such as the trafiquers there
are used to buy upon, as to have exchanged for Commodities or have sold
upon reasonable tyme of payment for money, and not have stood upon half ready money
downe, the sayd wines would have yeilded 20 li a tonne as hee beleeveth
and hee hath heard
some of the Inhabitants of Boston aforesayd saye soe much or the like
in effect./
