dutch seamen (whose language hee well understand having lived tenn
yeeres in that citie) and in discourse about Ivory, which this deponent
being a Turner, said hee hoped would shortly be plentifull and cheape or to that
effect, one of them made answer noe, hee know the
contrary of that, for there were two shipps fitted in holland, which were
to goe thense to the king of Spaines dominions (and named the place which this
deponent hath forgot) where hee said the commanders
or cheife of the said shipps were to enter them selves Burgers, and take
Spanish Commissions, and soe to goe thense to the Coast of Guiney
to take what English shipps they could meet withall, and to his remembrance
it was then said that one of the owners of the said shipps ˹lived in˺

The second of May 1657.
Exámined upon the foresaid allegation.
dt. 2.
Peter Silvester of London Merchant, aged 27 yeeres or
thereabouts sworne and exámined.
To the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh árticles
of the said allegation hee saith and deposeth that hee well knoweth the
producents Constant Silvester, ánd henry Colleton, and saith that they and company were
the time arlate and are ought to be by common repute and estimation
owners of the shipp the ffortune arlate of which George Paris was commander
and of the Negroes and Merchandizes allegate, and soe hee verily beleeveth
them to be, for hee saith that hee this exáminate being correspondent
of the said Constant Silvester who liveth at the Barbada's, received
a lettere from him on the fourteenth of ffebruary last, dated at Barbada's
the nineteenth of November last, wherein hee thus writeth, I have
an eighth part in a Guiney shipp of ninetie tonnes or thereabouts
which went from hense on the nineth of ffebruary last, shee hath sixe guns
and two Musketeres, two and twenty men and boyes, named the ffortune
whereof is master George Paris, shee hath taken in upward of two hundred
Negroes at her part, and is well as farr as any one knoweth, but
hearing a flying report there are two or three dutch men upon the coast
that have Spanish Commissions, I would have you if possible to get
250li sterling assured upon her, And by the said lettere which this deponent
nowe showeth and is readie againe to produce is to be seene. ffurther
that on the eleaventh of ffebruary last hee received another lettere from the
said Constant Silvester dated at the Barbadas the 22th of december
last whereby hee adviseth this deponent in theise words (touching the said
shipp) The vessell, George Paris, whereof I writ you in my former
is taken by the two Roguish dutchmen. hee had two hundred [?brave]
Negroes, whereof an eighth part was in one, and of the shipp alsoe.
They have taken three other shipps alsoe, whereof the Commander
came home in this shipp. Speake with them about the whole business-
