-A la séptima pregunta, dijo que miércoles sobre tarde, que se contaron,
siete del mes de diciembre del año próximo pasado de [mil] seiscientos y treinta
y nueve, fue cuando mataron al dicho Juan Ynbin y a los dichos sus
compañeros, y sábado en la noche de la misma semana fue cuando
a este testigo le dijeron lo habían hallado en dichas bóvedas y agua santa
de este dicho pueblo de Casaysay; y esto responde.
-A la octava pregunta, dijo que domingo que se contaron once de dicho mes de
diciembre de dicho año pasado de [mil] seiscientos treinta y nueve, habien-
do tenido este testigo aviso de los indios de este pueblo de Casaysay, como
aquella noche habían hallado en las dichas bóvedas al dicho Juan Ynbin,
mandó se lo llevasen al pueblo de Taal, para en él saber y averiguar en
la forma que había sido hallado en dichas bóvedas, y así lo hicieron.
Y llegado con el dicho sangley dicho domingo a las dos de la tarde, lo hizo
llevar a la iglesia donde bajó este testigo de su convento a verle; y era
tanto el concurso de gente que halló con el dicho sangley, que por buen rato
no pudo llegar a verle; porque a la fama que ya se había divulgado
de que con el dicho sangley había Nuestra Señora usado este milagro se había juntado.
Y llegando este testigo al dicho Juan Ynbin le vio las dos heridas
que tenía en el cerebro, una encima de otra, y viendo que eran tan pe-
netrantes, le pareció a este testigo se había de quedar luego allí muerto, di-
ciéndole que la Virgen había sido servida de guardarle para que
se confesase bien, si acaso con la turbación el día que le mataron
se había olvidado de algunas cosas que no hubiese confesado. Y animán-
dole a que tuviera confianza en Dios Nuestro Señor y en su Bendita
Madre, que pues ella había sido servida de guardarle, le daría salud
si le conviniese para honra y gloria suya y de su Bendito Hijo. Y
tomando el pulso este testigo al dicho Juan Ynbin le halló sin ca-
lentura ni accidente alguno, con que este testigo conoció ser cosa supe-
rior y milagrosa; por cuanto a este tiempo se le espeluzaron los cabellos
como hombre que ve alguna cosa de la otra vida; con lo cual dijo
a los indios que allí lo habían traído lo llevasen en casa de don
Juan de Cabrera, castellano de la fuerza de Bonbon, para que
allí se cuidase de él, yendo este testigo en su seguimiento hasta la dicha casa.

-To the seventh question, he said that it was a Wednesday in the late afternoon, which was
on the seventh of the month of December of the year sixteen thirty
nine when they killed the said Juan Ynbin and his
mates. And it was on Saturday at night of the same week when
this witness was told that he was found in the vault and holy water spring
of the said town of Casaysay. And this is what he responds.
-To the eighth question, he said that it was on Sunday, which was on the eleventh of the said month of
December of the said past year of sixteen thirty nine, when he was
told by the Indios of this town of Casaysay how
that night they had found the said Juan Ynbin in the vault. He
ordered them to take him to the town of Taal, so that he could know and find out
in what manner he was found in the said vault. And this is what they did.
And having arrived with the said Sangley the said Sunday at two in the afternoon, he order them to take him to the church. This witness came down from the convent to see him. And there were
so many people who were found with the said Sangley, that for a long time
he could not get close to him to see him. Because it has become renown that with
the said Sangley Our Lady had performed this miracle.
And coming closer this witness to the said Juan Ynbin, he saw the two wounds
that he had in his brain, one on top of the other. And seeing that they were so
deep, this witness thought that he would fall dead there. He told
him that the Virgin was going to take care of him and that he should
make a good confession, in case that the day of his killing, with all of the upheaval,
he had forgotten some things that he did not confess. And
encouraging him to have faith in God Our Lord and in his Blessed
Mother, because she had been called to take care of him. She would give him health
if that was convenient for the honor and glory of her Blessed Child. And
taking the pulse of the said Juan Ynbin, this witness found him without
a fever or any type of convulsion, which this witness believes to be a
miraculous and supernatural thing. Because at this time, his hair was raised,
as a man who was seeing something that came from another life. He then said that
the Indios who had brought him there, took him to the house of Don
Juan de Cabrera, the Castilian of the fort of Bonbon, so that
he could be cared for there. This witness followed them until they arrived at the said
house.
