Translation
"Lich had gotten the [firearms] found in his canoe, he says that he doesn't know
and adds that the said Marcos Lich had told him that Joseph [Lapique] had sent them to him in order for him to sell them on his account.
Having nothing more to say and having heard his declaration read he says it to be the pure truth that he is forty-nine years old and signed with us, the assessor and the attending witnesses of all which we give authority. Signed Duparc Vahamonde G Serrano J B Beauvais J Jarreau Pierre Hubert
*not knowing how to sign we have done it"
