the producent in this cause to open certayne chests of sugar videlicet twelve
Chests of sugar of fifteene which were brought ashoare from aboard the Oporto Merchant the voyage in question and
saith hee well remembreth that two of the sayd chests were very much
dammaged soe that the sugar which remayned in them unwasted was congealed
in a lumpe togeather as hard as Clay by reason of salt water and
oyle which they had receaved, and nine more of the sayd twelve chests of sugar
were alsoe damnified very much by the like meanes, And further to this
