ánd deposeth that in or about the beginning of January last 1656 the shipp the

or Cape Saint Vincent taken and seized by this deponent and

and that the said shipp Nicholas had then aboard her besides other goods
severall parcells of tobaccoe, which have since bin brought to this port
in severall shipps, and saith that the said shipp the Saint Nicholas (as her
company declared) then came from Santa domingo in hispaniola, and there
(as her said company declared) tooke in the said lading of tobacco and
other goods. And that the said Spaniards aboard further declared that the same
namely the said tobaccoes and other goods were laden at Santa domingo
by Spaniards, and were for the account of Spaniards, subiects of the
king of Spaine or to that effect #, and were to be carried to and deliveres
at Cadiz in Spaine or thereabouts in the king of Spaines dominions,
and saith the said shipp the Nicholas was then in her course for cadiz

Court; and hee and this examinate was informed that while the

Johnson went into this deponents cabbin (whither all the papers that
had bin taken in the Nicholas had bin brought) and tooke two packets
and heaved them over board into the sea. And otherwise hee cannot
