blow_v up_o during_o the_o time_n that_o captain_n jourden_n be_v in_o parley_n with_o the_o hollander_n our_o boat_n and_o they_o have_v free_a recourse_n to_o either_o of_o our_o ship_n at_o which_o time_n we_o have_v aboard_o the_o hound_n a_o portugal_n who_o be_v in_o the_o hollander_n ship_n several_a time_n and_o be_v know_v to_o some_o of_o they_o we_o therefore_o suppose_v that_o during_o the_o time_n of_o this_o portugal_n stay_v with_o they_o they_o inveigle_v he_o to_o set_v fire_n to_o some_o of_o our_o cartrage_n which_o we_o have_v lay_v ready_a for_o the_o fight_n but_o that_o which_o most_o of_o all_o confirm_v our_o belief_n be_v this_o that_o this_o portugal_n be_v see_v several_a time_n by_o these_o cartrage_n with_o a_o match_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o it_o be_v very_o think_v that_o he_o be_v hire_v to_o do_v it_o in_o respect_n that_o it_o happen_v so_o immediate_o after_o the_o death_n of_o captain_n jourden_n thus_o we_o may_v observe_v what_o injury_n and_o wrong_n we_o have_v sustain_v by_o the_o dutch_a who_o have_v be_v often_o desire_v to_o make_v satisfaction_n and_o many_o of_o we_o that_o have_v be_v wrong_v and_o abuse_v by_o they_o do_v from_o time_n to_o time_n petition_v the_o lord_n and_o many_o other_o of_o the_o king_n privy_a council_n but_o find_v no_o redress_n but_o our_o hope_n be_v that_o when_o our_o honourable_a council_n of_o state_n shall_v hear_v the_o sad_a cry_n of_o the_o poor_a for_o justice_n against_o that_o nation_n of_o blood_n the_o hollander_n who_o be_v not_o to_o be_v satisfy_v for_o they_o will_v have_v the_o kernel_n let_v who_o will_v take_v the_o shell_n our_o ship_n call_v the_o charles_n be_v about_o 1000_o tun_z in_o burden_n come_v home_o we_o forthwith_o repair_v to_o the_o east-indie_n

subpoena_n to_o attend_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o privy_a council_n where_o we_o only_o hear_v the_o noise_n of_o satisfaction_n but_o i_o for_o my_o part_n can_v never_o find_v the_o comfort_n of_o it_o at_o that_o same_o time_n i_o abraham_n woof_n be_v examine_v tell_v the_o privy_a council_n that_o the_o dutch_a have_v take_v and_o possess_v the_o island_n of_o banda_n which_o be_v of_o such_o concernment_n as_o i_o then_o relate_v that_o the_o dutch_a can_v never_o give_v the_o english_a satisfaction_n how_o the_o business_n be_v smother_v up_o i_o know_v not_o but_o i_o be_o sure_a if_o any_o be_v do_v i_o will_v venture_v my_o life_n it_o be_v not_o to_o the_o value_n of_o a_o pin_n to_o a_o pound_n and_o moreover_o i_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o get_v those_o island_n only_o by_o bloodshed_n and_o murder_v both_o the_o english_a and_o their_o friend_n and_o possess_v they_o by_o treachery_n and_o usurpation_n to_o this_o day_n and_o the_o people_n if_o they_o have_v leave_v any_o of_o they_o alive_a be_v but_o slave_n to_o the_o dutch_a and_o for_o the_o better_a satisfaction_n of_o all_o i_o will_v here_o insert_v the_o petition_n of_o one_o david_n powell_n to_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o privy_a council_n and_o the_o account_n both_o of_o he_o my_o own_o and_o other_o now_o live_v all_o of_o we_o be_v age_a not_o under_o 60_o and_o if_o the_o honourable_a counsel_n of_o state_n shall_v think_v it_o convenient_a for_o we_o to_o set_v out_o bill_n to_o summon_v in_o those_o that_o have_v be_v sufferer_n either_o they_o their_o son_n or_o grandchild_n i_o be_o confident_a we_o shall_v discover_v some_o hundred_o which_o have_v be_v high_o wrong_v by_o the_o dutch_a and_o i_o be_o very_o sure_a that_o many_o fatherless_a child_n may_v be_v relieve_v out_o of_o the_o profit_n and_o satisfaction_n they_o ought_v to_o make_v we_o but_o i_o shall_v leave_v all_o to_o the_o grave_a and_o serious_a judgement_n of_o the_o counsel_n of_o this_o nation_n and_o the_o world_n to_o judge_v
