The Deposⁿ of Will^m Waynhames aged 20 yeares

Sworne in open Court, p^o ffeb. 1658. Sayth That M^r Hall sayd
to this Depon^t, hee would see the sweet sented Tob hangd before hee
would plant any more of it, for it would undoe him, And his intention
was, as this Depon^t uerily beleiueth to plant noe more of it. M^r
Pille being in discourse w^th John Greenwell, the s^d Greenwell asked
M^r Pille, If hee would lett him haue his Plantaon w^th all his heart?
Answered noe, w^thout M^r Halls consent, And M^r Hall being asked,
sayd, It was his will it should be sold w^th all his heart, for he would
not be against it. M^r Hall allso went out of the howse when posses-
sion was gyuen. M^r Hall being in the upper part of the feild neare
the Thacht' Tob howse, was asked by this Depon^t whither the Corne
was his ? Answered it was his Masters, hee had nothing to doe w^th it.
And the Allegaons of both parties being heard & fully considered
by the Court, And th^t the Plantaon was sold w^th the defts consent, as
appeareth by Waynhams Oath, perused & read, The Judgm^t of the
Court is, th^t the plf ought to recouer his Tob. according to Couen^t
It is therefore Ordered by the Court th^t M^r Walter Hall deft pay
unto M^r John Pille plf Nine hund^d seauenty seauen pownds of Tob &
Cask, w^th dowble damages & Costs of suite according to the former
Order of the County Court.
