assurances and protestations that the same was for the same accompts mentioned in the
bills of lading, hee verily beleeveth the same to be really and truely for the accompts
mentioned in the said bills.

To the 8th and 9 hee saith that upon his signing the bills of lading hee kept one of each
(being those brought in the shipp which were never out of his custody till the same
were delivered at Plimouth) by him, and delivered the other two for each parcell to the persons
that brought them or procured the signing thereof, being the persons that laded the said
silver for the most part, and the rest the servants or such as were imployed by
therest of the said laders to bringe the said bills to be signed, And otherwise saving
his foregoing deposition to which hee referreth himselfe hee cannot depose.

To the 10th and 11th hee saith hee was never at Cadiz or Saint Lucars in merchant imployment
before this voyage, nor did hee ever lade or bringe silver thence before this
present voyage, and otherwise referring himselfe as aforesaid hee cannot
depose.

To the 12th and last hee saith that for greate and considerable quantities of
silver hee beleeveth that it is against the lawes of Spaine and forbidden
as a Capitale crime to lade and export it from Spaine, but for
oettie quantities of small importance, hee beleeveth that the same is not
soe looked after, nor the persons lading it liable to any greate danger, and
otherwise hee cannot depose, not being acquainted with the customes and
practises of Spaine in the point of ladeing silver.
