The case concerned the seizure of silver in the ship the ''Saint Laurence'' (Master: Peter Bennewijsent), the silver belonging to two prominent Genoese merchants, Peter Maria and Cesar Gentilis.

Peter Vandeput had responded that "deeming (besides the furtherance of commerce) that hee should doe good service to the Commonwealth, did thereupon write to and encourage them to send silver, and for their further encouragement therein this deponent caused the Act of Parliament made for import of bullion, to be translated into Spanish and sent the same unto them and hee referreth himselfe to the said Act of Parliament for importation of silver".<ref>[[HCA 13/73 f.53r Annotate|HCA 13/73 f.53r]]</ref>
