lading. and saith hee this examinate<br />
at the Canaries entered and owned the said exported goods as his<br />
owne, and there hee owned and tooke upon him to be the owner<br />
of the said goods there laden aboard her by him, but made entrie<br />

supplie the rest of the lading which shee brought home, as to<br />
the said Painter and others, but the kindes or quantities soe laden<br />
by thoseothers hee remembreth not, but referreth himselfe<br />
therein to their bills of lading, And otherwise saving his<br />
foregoing deposition hee cannot answer.

fourth Interrogatorie and saith hee said and gave out at the time<br />
of her lading that all the said homewards cargo was belonging<br />
to the said Ignatio de Landahola, Antonio de Ponte and this<br />
deponent (namely all the merchandize that was laden aboard<br />
her at the Canaries) without saying or telling to any and those<br />
that any part thereof belonged to mr ffernandez; only as occasion<br />
served hee spake or said what he thought most conducing to<br />
make the lading there seem to be for Spaniards, and saith hee<br />
knoweth the interrogated mr Chillingworth and saw him on the Iland<br />
of Teneriff, and beleeveth hee told him as hee did severall<br />
others, that hee would for colour consigne the said goods some to mr ffernandez<br />
and some to other English and that they were belonging to this examinate<br />
and the said Landohola and de Ponte, which hee soe said and gave<br />
out to prevent any discovery there of their belonging<br />
to mr ffernandez, and to colour them for him. And otherwise<br />
