-Daniell Gates, a London merchant, chartered the ''Legorne Merchant'' in December 1668.  The ship was to make a nine month voyage into the Mediterrean, stopping at a large number of ports.  The ship departed later than planned with supposed damage to trade and cost overruns.  Gates chose for these stated reasons to instigate a Chancery suit against the main owner, John Letten, and the ship's captain, David Hamilton.  The Bill of Complaint is set out in [[MRP: C10/160/41 f. 1|C10/160/41 f. 1]]).  Hamilton's answer is set out in [[MRP: C10/160/41 f. 2|C10/160/41 f. 2]].  The route appears to have been London to Malaga, to Genoa, to Legorne/Livorno, to Naples, to Messina, to Sephalonia, to Venice, to Zant, and back, possibly via Allicant, to London.  However, this possible route needs to be checked against the written answer by David Hamilton.
+In December 1668 the ''Legorne Merchant'' was chartered by the London merchant Daniell Gates.  A charter party was drawn up and duely executed between Daniel Gates and the ship's captain, David Hamilton, who was of Limehouse, Middlesex.  Hamilton himself was a part owner of the ship.
 Daniel Gates appears to have traded regularly to Mediterranean ports.  The owner of the ''Old African,'' he dispatched this vessel to Zante and Morea in 1680 to bring back currants, which were to be bought by a local merchant on his account.<ref>Felix James Henry Skene (ed.), ''The manuscripts of the House of lords 1678[-1693]'', vol. 3-4 (London, 1892), p. 285</ref>

-C10/160/41 f. 3 is a set of accounts for a voyage made by the ''Legorne Merchant'' between December 1668 and late 1669. The accounts were appended to the answer of the ship's captain, David Hamilton ([[MRP: C10/160/41 f. 2|C10/160/41 f. 2]]) to a bill of complaint by Daniell Gates, the merchant chartering the ship ([[MRP: C10/160/41 f. 1|C10/160/41 f. 1]]).   The route appears to have been London to Malaga, to Genoa, to Legorne/Livorno, to Naples, to Messina, to Sephalonia, to Venice, to Zant, and back, possibly via Allicant, to London.  However, this possible route needs to be checked against the written answer by David Hamilton.
