this deponent remembreth not) which owners caused the said shipp to be built and by
this deponents hands (who was to goe master of her) paid for such her building,
and saith hee was constituted master by the said owners, who were and are natives
of fflushing and have dwelt there all their lives, saving the said John
Van Oosen who hath dwelt there from his youth, but was borne at
Oosen in denmarke, and hee knoweth not but that Giles [?Runburgh] is of Middleborowe by birth,

proceede for Nantes, which hee knoweth being master of her.

To the third and fourth hee saith that the said shipp is laden with Banck
