having a former permission from the King of Spaine to enter freely
any kinde of french goods at Saint Lucar did by virtue of that permission
cleere the sayd Lockerams out of the Custome house at Saint Lucar and
caused them to be brought into the warehouses of the sayd Watts and
this deponent, But saith that after they had bin about tenn dayes in
the possession of the sayd Watts and this deponent, the Judge of the Admiralty
of Saint Lucar came to the sayd Watts and this deponent and demanded the sayd
Lockerams againe of the sayd Watts and this deponent or bayle for the

goods there and there upon this deponent and the sayd Watts
were forced to give in bayle for the sayd Lockerams to stand to the
Judgment of the Judge of the Court of Judicature in that behalfe
whether the sayd Lockerams were not confiscable for that it did
appeare they were to have bin transported to Palma: but this

the Marchants for a smale gratuity doe many tymes procure the
officers to connive at the lading of them And hee this deponent hath
severall tymes had french linens sent and landed at Saint Lucar and
hath there sold and disposed of them And further hee cannot depose/

To the 4th article hee saith hee well knoweth the Lockerams arlate
were privately packed up in fower fatts of flaxe but cannot as hee
saith saye whether the officers would not have discovered the same
if the sayd Keene had not made entrie of them as a foresayd
for that hee knoweth it was a thing usuall with the officers at Saint Lucar to open
fatts and truncks, empty them, to discover what
sort of goods were packed in them And further hee cannot depose

To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true/
