owners. And saith the said vessell on or about the 18th of October last went
from the Texel with 16 horses aboard her and some bricks and tiles bound
for the Charibbe Ilands, and that shee was not in any port from the
time of her departure from the Texel, and her

and going the voyage in her.

To the seceond hee saith that the said shipp in her voyage ariving neere
the greate Roade of the Barbada's, there came English aboard and

his horses unto them, telling them hee could not doe it without license from
the Governour, and soe the said Claes going ashore to get leave of the Governour
to take in fresh water, hee at his retorne aboard reported to this deponent
and the rest of the companie, that the Governour had offered and given him
leave to trade there freely, promising him asmuch libertie and freedome
in such his trading as any of the shipps that were in the roade enioyed or

further within the roade traded and sold his said horses to the
English, two whereof the Governour himselfe had, and having soe delivered them ashore, and obtained license (as hee said) from the
Governour to take in water and goe to [?kersawe] (an island under the dutch)
and fetch more horses to the Barbados, the said master tooke in water at
the Barbadoas and went accordingly and fetcht 30 horses and some
goates from [?kersaw] and retourned with them (saving one horse that

about foure dutch miles off the Roade, as they were under saile, the
Grantham frigot in the service of this Commonwealth came and
seized the said shipp, 29 horses and the said goates, and carried them
into the Roade, where the master, this deponent and the rest of the
company were taken out, and turned ashore and the said shipp horses
and goates confiscated and disposed of by the English, and this hee saith
