the English tongue, a pox take the master (speaking of the said Wingaerts)<br />
for a rogue, for wee had time enough when wee were on the coast of<br />
England, but when wee came to Ireland wee had not time to buy soe<br />
much as a paire of stockings, much lesse a rugg, or to that effect<br />
And further saith that the said Wingaerts comming with his said shipp and lading<br />
from Ireland too late for the [?lent] market and for the Gallions, lost the<br />
oportunitie of a good maarket, and soe John Hamilton the Supra cargo<br />
was necessitated to sell some of the said lading as hee could finde [?XXXX GUTTER]<br />
and that the commannder of the ''lionesse'' bought a small quantitie<br />
of the ''Golden Suns'' beef, butter and herings and candles, that which this deponent (as hee saith)<br />
never saw better, and saith that if the said shipp had arived with her<br />
said lading in the bay of Cadiz avout two monethes sooner then shee did<br />
her commodities (as it was there commonly reported and said)<br />
would have sold at very high rates, there being then greate want<br />
thereof in those parts. And further hee deposeth not.

To the said allegation hee saith and deposeth that hee well knowerg the<br />

thereof, and that teh said shipp in or about the beginning of May last (old stile)<br />
came and arived in the Bay of Cadiz where this deponent then was in<br />
the shipp the ''Golden Lionesse'' of Amsterdam whereof hee was and still is<br />
Commannder, and that soone after such arivall of the ''Golden Sun''<br />
this deponent had speech with the said Winegaerts and understood from him<br />
that hee with his said vessell went from Amsterdam to Ireland and<br />
came from Ireland to the said Bay with a cargo of beef, herring, [?XXX GUTTER]<br />
butter and other goods taken in at Ireland to be vended and disposed of<br />
on the coast of Spaine, and saith that the said goods were long [?expected GUTTER]<br />
on the bay of Cadiz by henry [?Welky] a factor there while there was a<br />
goo market for them, which was in lent and before the Gallions bound<br />
for the West Indies were furnished, but the said Wingaerts when hee [?came GUTTER]<br />
excused his late comming and pretended to be hindered by contrary winde<br />
Howbeit this deponent having occasion to goe a little out of the bay with<br />
his shipp, borrowed some of the ''Golden Suns'' men, whom hee was<br />
told and informed (in discourse about the late arivall of the ''Golden Sun'')<br />
that the said Wingaerts had spent much time in loitering and that being come neere the<br />
Ile of Wight hee retourned<br />
into the downes, whereas abother shipp that was in his company bound<br />
for Ireland, plied her course and came into Ireland long before him, and<br />
hee dispatched her busines there when the said Wingaerts (who had stayed<br />
about a moneth in the downes) came thither, And further that whereas<br />
hee was bound for dublin, hee when hee afterwards came on the coast<br />
of Ireland with a faire winde for dublin, went into Waterford<br />
to keep company with a shipp that came with him from the downes<br />
and was bound for Waterford. And saith that afterwards upon retourne<br />
into the Bay, this deponent went aboard the said shipp the ''Golden Sun''<br />
