Anchor and atood with her and after a while fetcht her up, and having soe
done shott two gunnes with shott at her, the one ahead and the other a sterne of her, And saith
there were at the same tyme three other dutch shipps lying further off but in
the way the Olive Branch was to passé in her goeing into Bantam, And
saith the whole five shipps aforesaid (as was there commonly sayd) did
belong to the sayd dutch East India Company./

To the 4th article hee saith that upon such shooteing one of the Captaines
of the sayd dutch shipps came presently aboard the Olive Branch and asked
the Master whence shee came, and whether shee was bound, whereto
the Master (John Brampton) replyed that shee came from London, and was bound
for Bantam there to take in her ladeing, whereto the Captaine of the sayd
dutch ship answered thus or the like in effecte wee lye here on
purpose to hinder all English shipps from having Commerce with those
of Bantam, and told the sayd Brompton hee must not nor should goe
in with his sayd ship and commanded him to beare up and come
to the Admirall of the sayd dutch ffleete, which the sayd Brampton did
accordingly And further hee cannot depose/

To the 5th hee saith the Olive Branch being come up to the Admirall of
the dutche ffleete the sayd Brampton the Master of her went aboard the
Admirall with purpose (as after his Coming back aboard the Olive
Branch hee declared in presence of this deponent and others) to get leave
of the sayd Admirall to goe into Bantam and take in his ladeing,
but could not get leave, whereupon
the sayd Brampton came aboard the Olive Branch againe and fetched a
present and carried it aboard the dutch Admirall to bestowe on him the
better (as hee beleeveth) to induce him to give leave for the Olive Branch to
goe into Bantam which notwithstanding (as the sayd Brampton
upon his returne aboard the Olive Branch declared before this deponent
and others) the sayd Admirall expressely denyed to give the sayd Brampton
leave to goe into Bantam though hee told him hee came from London and
was bound thither to take in his ladeing, but forbid him to goe in thither
and told him hee had order from his Imployers the East India Company
of Holland to hinder all English shipps from goeing into Bantam
and having any commerce with the Inhabitants thereof And further
hee cannot depose/

To the 6th hee saith that the dutch Admirall having thus prohibited

and hindered the Olive Branch from going into Bantam to receave

her lading the foresaid Brampton the Master of her sett sayle with her
for Battavia (a place where the dutch Generall kept his residence)
purposeing to acquainte one Mr ffrederick Skinner an English
Agent who was gone thither before and to whom the Olive Branch was consigned at Bantam to receave of him her ladeing there with his the sayd Bramptons being
soe hindered from goeing into Bantam, and to desire his assistance
to the Generall to procure leave for her to goe in, And saith that upon the
arrival of the Olive Branch at Batavia the sayd Brampton there met

with the sayd Skinner, and (as the sayd Brampton afterwards related before

this deponent and others of the Company of the Olive Branch) acquainted the
sayd Skinner with the cause of his comeing thither videlicet to speake with the Generall
of
