who told him: That it was necessary that he obtain
what he had signed, and that he need not worry
that no harm would come to him
and that for fear and respect of the said
Commander, he had to say what appears
in his said declaration, because all

is what pushed the declarant to do such

that all that the report contained was
true, and was conducted with the necessary
formalities, as this same
Commander made him believe and he responds--
Asked if he did not know and understand
that he could not and should not sign as

that no harm would come to him
