Moller pretended to be his man) had silke quilts and other
very good accomodation like the principall marchant which
occasioned this deponent then to say that the man is better
accomodated than the master.

To the eleaventh hee saith that the said van lynen
would sometimes say the shipp was his and his owners,
but never [?declared] who those owners were, but
for the goods hee would never say what they were
but often protested hee never knew whose they were.
And therefore and for the reasons aforesaid hee this
deponent verily beleeveth them to belonge to Spaniards
and not to hollanders, and addeth for confirmation
of this his beleefe, that a ffrenchman that was att
Tolon, when the Saint Mary was brought up said that
the said van lynen in the Saint Mary under the Spanish flagg had met a ffrench shipp that hee
was in, in the Streights mouth or thereabouts and
as a Spaniard had taken fish from the said ffrencvh shipp
and that afterwards in his sight hee went into the
Bay of Gibraltar under the said Spanish colour,
and alsoe for the reasons following.
