it being his endeavour that everyone there should beleeve
the said goods to be belonging to Spaniards hee this examinate said as much

deponent caused the said first letter or second schedule of those remaining
in Court to be written, to the end to colour the goods therein mentioned
by making them seeme to be belonging to Spaniards, and this deponent
beleeveth they are belonging to the said mr Painter, but what the said
Mr Page hath owned or refused to owne or sweare hee knoweth not, and
otherwise saving his foregoing deposition, hee cannot answer.

To the last hee saith that the interrogated Robert hunter bought of this
deponent two pipes of wine (which were laden aboard and as hee
beleeveth brought home in the said shipp) and paid for then at Teneriff, and that the said hunter was
to let mr Page have them, Mr Page paying him
sixtie pounds sterling for the same,
