has if Swinnock had taken his 100 baggs of ginger first, this hee
deposeth being warehousekeeper as aforesayd and seeing the delivery
of all the sayd ginger soe bought by other persons which is as yet delivered and seeing the sayd Swinnocks
hundred baggs of ginger alsoe sett by and weighed And further to these
articles hee cannot depose, saving his foregoeing deposition

To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true/

To the Interrogatories/ [CENTRE HEADING]

To the first Interrogatorie hee saith hee cometh to testifie the truth of his
knowledge being required soe to doe by the Commissioners for prize goods,
and hath noe share or interest in the ginger in question, and is warehousekeeper
of the warehouse at Ralphes Key where the ginger in question did and doth lye, and
did goe into the sayd warehouse very often according as his occasions required
but how often hee remembreth not./

To the 2 Interrogatorie hee answereth that there was in the sayd
warehouse in all three hundred and seaven baggs of ginger,
and saith the same was not lotted at all that this deponent knoweth of,
it being (as this deponent beleeveth) of a like goodnesse, and noe benefitt
to any buyer which of them first tooke their share thereof, and saith that
the rest of the ginger in the sayd ware house not belonging to the sayd
Swinnock was bought by Mr William Reames and Mr henry dandy, who tooke
their parts out of the whole without casting any lotts, as the sayd Swinnock
might have done if hee had pleased, and had come for his hundred
baggs according to his tyme prefixed in his agreement, there being noe
part of the sayd ginger delivered out till after the sayd Swinnocks tyme
limitted by his agreement was expired, the premisses hee deposeth being
present at the delivery of all the ginger delivered out of the sayd warehouse
and at the setting by and weighing of the sayd Swinnocks hundred baggs
and further hee cannot answere./

To the third Interrogatorie hee saith that the foresayd Mr halford spake to the sayd
Swinock to fetch away his sayd 100 baggs of ginger, but the particular words hee used
this rendent remembreth not, but saith the sayd Halford spake to the sayd Swinnock
thereof at the half Moone upon Ralphes Key in this deponents presence, and as to the day of
the moneth or hower of the day hee soe spake to him hee remembreth not, saving
hee saith it was after the expiration of the sayd Swinnocks tyme prefixed for him
to fetch the sayd ginger as aforesayd, hee remembreth them not, nor the
dayes of the moneth or howers of the day more particularly then before in his
deposition to the allegation hee hath declared, saving hee saith hee spake to
him once to the effect predeposed at the halfe Moone aforesayd, and an other tyme
in a streete neere the Waterside in London And further saving his foregoeing
deposition hee cannot now particularly answere the effect of this
Interrogatorie./

To the 5th Interrogatorie hee saith hee was present when the hundred baggs
