this deponent sawe lying in the same sellar where they were at
Gally key, other wines which seemed to this deponent to be and
were affirmed by Mr Tivell to be of the same parcell. And
further saith that being informed that there had bin tenn butts
of the better sort of the parcell, taken out of the said shipp
at some place whether shee had bin carried in, hee saith that
if they were but soe good as those wines which this deponent and
the said Mayo and Wills soe bought of Mr Tivell, they were
well worth and would here have yeelded two and twenty
pounds sterling per butt one with another, if they had
arrived here in good condition about Christmas last or before or in January last, as it was said they
might have donne had they not bin hindered by some that seized
them, and if they were better than those they soe brought
(as it was affirmed they were) they were then worth and could
have yeelded a greater rate than two and twenty pounds per butt.
