for the sayd owners by Jacob and Claes Ravens Timber masters theire to whom
this deponent payd for the Hull of the same ten thousand guilders, and
about 14000 guilders more for gunnes ammunition tackle furniture and
provisions which this deponent payd to severall persons of whom he bought the

procuring the sayd money was as followeth. videlicet. He this deponent by an
Order of his foresayd Owners did sell a shipp of theirs by name Saint John of which this Rendent
was also master, to a Lubecker for 6800 marks Lubeckes which

there was due for freight to the shipp Saint John att the tyme of her sale eight
thousand guilders which moneyes Claes Van Woghall a Broker of Amsterdam
payd to this deponent. and the rest of the sayd moneyes this deponent
had remitted to him from Hamburgh by the foresayd
Owners and their accompt, aand some part of the provisions videlicet bread
and beefe were by the sayd Owners sent from Hamburgh, and this Rendent
is sure that the sayd money payd for the sayd shipp and appertenances was
the proper money of the sayd Daniel Brands and others the then Owners above
specifyed, because the greatest part of it did arise out of the sale and
freight of their owne sayd former shipp the Saint John. and the rest was
for their accompt remitted as aforesayd, in this manner videlicet part thereof
this Rendent receyved of his freinds Skippers of Hamburgh who had
freight due to them att Amsterdam, and drew bills of exchange upon the
sayd Owners for repayment thereof att Hamburgh
which they accordingly payd, and part thereof videlicet for sayles was payd
att Hamburgh by the Owners to the Assignes of the sayle makers of
Amsterdam for whose use this Rendent drew bills of exchange for the same
upon the sayd Owners by order of the sayd sayle makers. And further or
otherwise he cannot depose.
