to those parts from this port of London, and in such voyages hath
frequented the port of Bantam and other places whereunto the
honourable English East India Company use to send their shipps, and
servants, and thereby well knoweth that in the yeares 1655. 1656 and 1657
the Governour and company of the said English Merchants have
used the trade and send their shipps servants and officers to a place in Java
Major called Bantam in the said parts of East India, where hee
saith they have for all the said time had and still have a settled
ffactory, and likewise to send to and to trade at Maccasser, Surat
Jambee and other parts of the said east India and thereabouts. And
saith that at Jambee and Bantam the said English company hath
and imployeth from time to time severall officers and servants
in their trade and commerce as likewise in other places thereabouts

the growth manufacture and vent of those parts and places, And
that the said English company have from time to time for all the
time aforesaid freely traded (saving the iniuries hereafter

(as hee conceiveth) lawfully doe, and this hee saith was and
is publique and notorious, and observed by him soe to have bin
had and donne as hee hath here deposed.

death was commanded by this deponent, who while the said
Captaine Couchman lived was his mate the said voyage. The
Marygold, the Golden Cock, the Olive Branch and the
Jonathan, all which shipps this deponent saw in those parts
