Transcription

one who spake good English, and had bin formerly (as the sayd
Vernate and others declared to this deponent) imployed in behalfe of English
men to prosecute their suites there for them, and this deponent having
soe made ?choyce of him was denyed the benefit of his councell
and assistance, by the Judges of the sayd Court of Judicature, though
they had formerly graunted the same.

To the 8th Interrogatorie hee saith as before that at such tymes as hee went
abroad hee had a guard of souldiers upon him and was not permitted
to speake any thing but in their presence and hearing, and in
that manner was put aboard a Holland shipp called the Crowne
Lyon to be sent for Holland And further saving his foregoeing depsition
he cannot answere.

To the 9th hee saith saving his forefoeing deposition to the sixth
Interrogatorie wherein hee hath particularly answered the effect of
this Interrie hee cannot answere but referreth him selfe
to his desposition to the sayd 6th Interrogatorie.

To the 10th Interrogatorie hee saith the Postillion at her seizure was of
the burthen of two hundred tonne or therabouts and had nyne
peeces of ordnance and the sayd shipp and her tackle apparrell
and furniture were then well worth (in this deponents Judgement and
estimate) two thousand six hundred pounds sterling or therabouts
And saith the sayd shipp had aboard he at the tyme of he
seizure, (for Accompt of the sayd Delboe Middleton Temmes
Britton Taylor and Syon seaventeene hundred forty six parcell and thirty
one ?Catees of pepper, and peeces of Eight three thousand
three hundred and some odd peeces which pepper
would in this deponents Judgment, if it had come safe to England have
there yeild Thirteene Thousand pounds sterling besides freight due
alsoe to the sayd Delboe Middleton Temms Britton Taylor and Sayon as Owners of the sayd shipp which as hee
beleeveth would have amounted to two thousand eight hundred pounds
more of like money And hee saith that hee this deponent had
for his owne Accompt aboard the sayd shipp at her seizure sixe hundred
peeces of Eight, and pepper and Cloaves soe much as would have
in England have yeilded seaventeene hundred pounds sterling,
besides his wages for the sayd voyage which hee beleeveth did amount
to ?three hundred pounds more of like money and his cloats amounting
to about twenty pounds more of like money all which hee lost by the
seizure aforesayd And hee saith the sayd shipps company at the
tyme of the sayd seizure had aboard her for their Accompt
pepper and ?Caude and other goods to the value of ?three hundred pounds sterling
in
