for the same by the sayd Governour. And further knoweth not.

To the sixth article. he saith the sayd ffrancis Hurdidge was imprisoned
att Angola as aforesayd. And this deponent heard him say that he
had a suite of law causelesly brought against him. and that thereby
and by his impriosnment suffered 300. millres dammage.

To the 7th. and 8th. articles. of the sayd allegation he saith that there
was left in the sayd shipp att Angola a quantity of salt which
was sayd to be 4000 Alquiers, and was putt upon the sayd Captaine
Hurdidge in stead of 800 millres for his freight in the Kings
service as aforesayd; and there were there likewise taken in
about 917. Negars for accompt of Portugall merchants, and
about 184 besides children for English Accompt videlicet the sayd Hurdidges Owners and Imployers besides
24. negars for this deponents accompt. all to be transported
to Bahia in Brasilia And the sayd ffrancis Hurdidge did
contract with the merchants laders for about three millres
and 600 res per head for each negar that
should be landed alive at Bahia, and there were about
seven hundred eighty seven Negars there safely landed for the
aććompt of the sayd Portugall merchants the freight of which
according to the rates aforesayd amounted to 3089. millres
or thereabouts, but the sayd Hurdidge forced this deponent
to pay four millres per head for the freight of his sayd negars.

Negers which were all landed alive there and about one hundred fifty nine negers
belonging to the sayd Hurdidge and his Owners and imployers and some four
negars belonging to some other of the sayd shipps mariners
all likewise there landed alive. And saith he observed that
most of the sayd Negars for English accompt were sold upwards
of fifty millres per head, and some upward of 60. millres
per head, so as hee saith hee doth verily beleive and doth estimate
that the sayd Negers for English Accompt were one with another
really worth forty five millres per head. so as the Negers
belonging to the sayd Hurdidge, his Owners and Imployers, so
landed and seized att the rates aforesayd were then of the
value arlate att the least. videlicet. seventhousand one hundred
fifty five millres, not aććompting this deponents sayd 22
Negars and sayd Mariners four negars
