hee understood (as hee confessed hee did) that by Charter partie
the said shipp was to stay there fourtie dayes if neede required,
and if soever dispatched, then to proceede with the first winde;
And much hee stormed and did chide at mr ffernandez his
sending, when as hee (as hee said) had written him word
that there were noe wines to be had, and soe certainly did
the said don Christofer knowe that there was noe lading for
them, that hee began to speake thereof within few dayes
after their arivall, and assoone as the pipestaves were delivered
namely by such time as they had bin there about three
weekes space (and not more as hee beleeveth) had plainly
declared that there was noe lading for the said shipp, and that
hee would protest against them if with all speede they did
not depart, and did at length accordingly protest, and soe did they [?XX GUTTER]
against him for not being reladed and that hee would stay his time, and yet in [?XXXX] after neere about
a monethes space that the said shipp had bin there, and that
the said master and this deponent, had used all diligence for
their relading, they were forced to depart and come
away quite dead freighted, hee the said factor don Christofer

of May last that they came thense, hee gave that master a
letter to the said mr ffernandez open purporting his discharging
the said shipp away without lading because there was none
to be gotten or to that effect. And being never shewed the letter
annexed, hee saith hee verily beleeveth it to be the same letter
soe sent from the said don Christofer, which this deponent sawe
him write and subscribe in his counting house at or neere
Oratava. And otherwise cannot depose.
To the seventh article hee saith that the said shipp the Sea ffortune
was and is of the burthen of three hundred and fiftie tonnes or
thereabouts, and could very well and conveniently have brought
450 pipes of wine (at least) from the Canaries, and would
have brought the same if the said factor or other would have
laded the same aboard her, which hee knoweth having sailed in
her and tooke notice of her burthen.
To the eighth hee referreth him selfe to the Charterpartie
made for the said voyage. And otherwise hee cannot depose.
To the nineth hee cannot depose.
To the tenth hee saith the said owners have suffered much in
charges and otherwise to the not payment of the freight unto them
for the said voyage, by the said freighter. And otherwise hee cannot
depose.
To the Interrogatories. [CENTER HEADING]
To the first hee saith the said mr de haze spake to him to come
and testifie the truth of his knowledge in this matter, wherein hee
saith hee hath noe interest at all, and otherwise negatively.
To the second hee saith hee would give the victory in this cause indifferently
to the parties if it were in his power, and otherwise negatively.
