an Inhabitant about the space of a yeare and a halfe and upwards, and
hath bin a trader thither for these fower yeares last past and thereby knoweth
and hath observed that tobaccoes is there generally disposed of (by such
as have tobaccoes to send for England) by by middle of March
next after the Cropp wherein it growes, by any shipping that is then
there, and that what they cannot by that tyme lade they doe usually barther (sic)
away for to whome they can, either in exchange for other goods or for
the like quantitie of tobaccoe to be given them the next Cropp, which
they doe for that Tobaccoe is in Virginia by reason of the heate there a
perishable commodity and will not there keepe from one harvest to an
other And further hee cannot depose/
To the 13th hee saith hee verly beleeveth and is fully perswaded in his
conscience that if the sayd Ewer had sett sayle from London about
the latter end of October 1654 according to his bills sett up in
the Exchange to that effect, or had not stayed soe longe at Gravesend,
Lee Roade, the downes, and ffalmouth as hee did hee might have

at Sea which was some hinderance to her in her passage [?but GUTTER]
beleeveth the sayd Ewers his neglect and staye at severall places as aforesayd
soe longe after the tyme hee pretended by his bills hee would bee
goeing, was the mayne cause why the sayd shipp arrived soe XXX GUTTER
