was riding before Battavia when the said shipp Endimion
soe came in thither, and while they were both soe there, the
Cabinets or Scrittors of the English Agent Mr ffrederick Skinner
were by order of the dutch Generall (as it was there commonly
and generally spoken and reported) seized upon and fetched from
aboard the Marygold, and that (as it was alsoe commonly said)
there were many of the English East India Companies Papers and letters

and perused by the dutch, to the great discovery of the secrets

to be vexed at such their having missed her. And further saith

and her Commannder and Company there said and declared that they came
from England bound for Bantam and being come neare unto
Bantam, were prohibited and forbidden by the dutch ffleete to goe in,
and therefore they were come to Battavia to advise the
English Agent thereof, whom they understood to be there.

To the 13th hee saith that as the Endymion was comming the
said voyage out of the streights of Sunda home wards
