them rifled and plundered the sayd shipps … them rifled and plundered the sayd shipps of most of their ladeing<br />
and provisions and tackleing this deponent being aboard the sayd<br />
ducth man of warr when the ''Constant Mary'' was soe seized and saw<br />
the sayd ducth man of warrs company bring aboard the sayd man of<br />
warr out of the ''Constant Mary'' the severall sorts of goods and merchan<br />
dizes before specified, and her spare sayles and rigging shee being furnished<br />
with new sayles and Cordage besyde what shee had up, and having thus<br />
seized the sayd shipps the sayd Albrechts the Commander of the sayd<br />
ducth man of warr carried the sayd shipps the ''Gyant'' and the ''Constant''<br />
''Mary'' to the Grand Canaries to the utter overthrowe of the voyages which<br />
were then bound out upon and great dammage of the Owners and<br />
imployers of them And hee saith the ''Constant Mary'' at such her seizure<br />
was a tight strong shipp and her and her tackle and furniture then very good<br />
and the Merchandizes soe brought from aboard her well conditioned<br />
and further hee cannot depose not knoweing the quantities of the<br />
provisions and goods and Merchandizes soe seized aboard the ''Constant''<br />
''Mary'' but knoweth they did amount to very considerable value./.
To the 6th and 7th and 8th articles hee saith that hee hath used the Guinney trade any<br />
tyme these twenty yeares and made many voyages thither and sometyme<br />
thence to the Barbados, and thereby knoweth that such kinde of goods<br />
and Merchandizes as were seized aboard the ''Constant Mary'' the<br />
tyme aforesayd doe frequently yeilde great profitt<br />
at Guinney soe that hee verily beleeveth if shee had arrived<br />
safe at Guinney with her sayd ladeing and there bartered them away<br />
and gone from thence to the Barbados with the proceede thereof and then<br />
returned safelty to London, her sayd voyage would have produced to<br />
her owners and imployers at the least two thousand pounds sterling<br />
over and above their principall, and<br />
soe much profitt is usually made upon such Commodities in such<br />
voyages all which the sayd ffrancis<br />
Bellers Richard Glover Thomas ffowke and Company the Owners<br />
aforesayd are deprived of by reason the sayd hans Albrechts<br />
hath ever since the sayd eighth day of May 1654 kept and deteyned the sayd<br />
shipp and her ladeing from her sayd Owners and doth still deteyne the same<br />
or hath otherwise disposed thereof./
To the 9th article hee saith the ''Constant Mary'' and her tackle apparrell<br />
and furniture from the 8th day of May 1654 (if shee had not bin then<br />
seized) would untill this present have yeilded her Owners fifty pounds<br />
a moneth to lett her out upon voyages from London to Guinney and thence<br />
to the Barbados and thence to London, as this deponent verily beleeveth And<br />
further to this article hee cannot depose./
To the 10th article hee siath that in his this deponents Judgment the sayd<br />
