Ad dictum allegaconem deponit et dicit tha … Ad dictum allegaconem deponit et dicit that the arlate John Castens<br />
by letters dated about the beginning of January last advised this deponent<br />
that hee had sent a shipp named the ''North Pole'' Melle Moder Master from Amsterdam for Norway<br />
there to lade Deales for the accompts of the arlate John and Arnold Vanderhagen merchants and Inhabitants of Stockholme and therewith<br />
to come for London consigned to this deponent and partner and to bee<br />
by them sold for the accompt and benefitt of the said John and Arnold Vander<br />
hagen. The arrivall of which shipp and lading this deponent and partner<br />
accordingly Expected, and for prevention of her being taken by<br />
Scottish Privateers this deponent procured the Duke of Yorkes passe for<br />
the said shipp which hee caused to bee registred in Scotland for the<br />
greater secuirty of the said shipp and lading against the Scotts. And the<br />
same hee saith was also registred with the Duke of Yorkes Commissioners<br />
for prizes here. But this deponent never sent the said passe on board the said shipp<br />
''Northpole'' ffor feare that if she had bin met with by any<br />
Holland or ffrench man of warr they finding the said passe onboard<br />
thereby discover her designe for London, and upon that ground should make prize of her and her lading. And saith that afterwards<br />
namely about the beginning of March last<br />
the said John Carstens by letters advised this deponent and partner that<br />
the shipper Melle Moller dyed in Norway of the snall<br />
pox after the lading of the said shipp and that the stiersman of the said<br />
shipp with the rest of the Company had brought the said shipp and<br />
her lading into the Texell instead of cmming for London And that thereupon<br />
hee had presently sent unto the Swedish Envoy thn resideing at the<br />
Hague for his advice what to doe in the case Melle Melles the master of the said ship ''Northpole'' being dead and the shipp<br />
bein brought thether instead of going for London as was<br />
designed, And that the said Envoy had advised him the said John Vastens to put<br />
another Swedish Shipper in the place of Melle Molles deceased<br />
And that thereupon hee the said John had constituted Peter Carelson<br />
(a burger and dweller at Ba[?bus] in Sweden) master of the said<br />
shipp ''Northpole'', to whom he had given order that if being at sea hee<br />
could find any opportunity to put into any harbour of England hee should soe<br />
doe and give this deponent notice therein, but hee the said Castens apprehending great<br />
danger that if the shipp making any English port should bee discovered<br />
by either ffrench or Dutch did order the master that if hee could not<br />
doe it without manifest danger then to goe to Rochell in ffrance<br />
with the said lading, ffor that hee had seene severall shipps condemned<br />
which had northerne ladings because they were discovered to bee<br />
bound for England. And saith that hee hath coresponded with<br />
the said John Carsten about a yeare, and all that time and at<br />
present this deponent takes him to bee a Swede borne and resident at Amsterdam as a merchant stranger, and verily beleeveth him to<br />
bee soe and noe otherwise. Et alr nescit.
Repetit coram duo Mylls<br />
surrogato unto Edwardo Browne Notary publique.
