this deponent and the rest of the sayd shipps companie and was affirmed
by the Pylott which the sayd master tooke on board at Bilboa to pylott
the sayd shipp and who did pylott her safe over the sayd barr And hee alsoe saith that hee this
deponent well knoweth that presently after the sayd shipp and goods were
safe come to an Anchor ober the sayd barr the sayd William Mayer
the master did write a letter to the arlate [?XXXay] Westcombe the ffactor of the sayd Pitt and Marshall
to give him notice of the sayd shipp and goods their arrivall and sent the same by a Spaniard
to be delivered to the sayd Westcombe soe soone as possibly hee could, And
further hee cannot depose saving hee saith that what ever shipp comes ober
the barr aforesayd must of necessitie Come under Comand of
the Castle of Bilboa and is inavoidably lyable to be searched by the
King of Spaines officers there soe sooe as the officers please, and to
have ridden without the sayd barr (in such tempetious weather as
then was) was in the Judgment of this deponent and others as is predeposed
alltogeather impossible without great perill and hazard of the sayd shipp
her ladeing and Companyes lives./

To the 8th 9th and 10th articles hee saith that for the reasons in his foregoeing deposition
expressed this deponent well knoweth that the sayd Mayer the master
of the sayd shipp was not by reason of any neglect or fault of
him or his company any cause that the goods controverted were seized
by the King of Spaines officers after the sayd shipp her coming over the Barre of Bilboa
for that hee this deponent well knoweth that the weather was as is predeposed
soe fowle and tempetious that the sayd ship could not ride in safety without
the sayd barr, neither was it in the power of the sayd Master (being come
over the barr to avoide the danger of the tempest) to hinder the King of
Spaines officers from comming aboard and searching the sayd shipp which they did the same day the sayd shipp came to Anchor over the barr but
hee this deponent saith the true cause of the seizure of the sayd goods was for
that the sayd Pitt and Marshall or their factors had not procured a
licence for the safe importing of the sayd Contrabanda goods before
the arrivall of the sayd shipp and goods at Bilboa And saith that for want
of the sayd licence and for noe other cause the sayd
Kings officers did the same day seize the sayd goods as Contranbanda
goods and carried some of them on shoare and was and is
a thinge publique and well knowne at Bilboa among Merchants and sea men
there And hee further saith that about three weekes after the seizure of
the sayd goods the sayd Kings Officers came againe aboard the sayd
ship the Guift (the master thereof being then on shoare about his necessary
occasions) and searched the sayd shipp againe and upon search thereof found
therein moneys (belonging to the company of the sayd shipp) hadd therein,
amounting (togeather with moneys found in the packetts and chests of the saud shipps
Company) to one hundred and fifty dollers or peeces of eight or thereabouts
part whereof the sayd Company had receaved of the ffactor or ffactors of
the sayd Pitt and Marshall for wages due to them for their service in [?that]
