Transcription

1. upon her voyage for this port of London: All which he well knoweth
2. be true for that he was Masters mate in and of the sayd shipp the sayd
3. voyage. And otherwise cannot depose, saving that the sayd shipp as
4. he saith lost her foremast allso in the sayd storme by the fury thereof.
5. To the second article of the sayd allegation This deponent saith that the sayd shipp
6. being so fitted att the Bermadaos sett sayle from thense for England
7. and had a Pilot on board her to conduct her safe from the sayd Island
8. howbeit he saith that about the second day of November 1655 the sayd
9. shipp by reason of the wind which proved more scanty than was expected
10. (not withstanding the diligence and Industry of the sayd Pilot then on board
11. her) did strike upon some rockes, which occasioned so great a leake in
12. the sayd shipp (for the space of two dayes and nights especially) that the sayd
13. Master and Mariners could scárce keepe her from sinking although
14. they did use their utmost diligence by pumping to keepe her dry
15. which he knoweth to be true being Masters mate on board her as aforesayd
16. And otherwise he cannot depose.
17. To the third article of the says allegation hee saith that about the beginning of the
18. moneth of december 1655. the sayd shipp being come with her lading
19. neere the Coaste of England in her Course for this port of London
20. mett with another violent storme and stresse of weather by the
21. violence whereof her mainsayle and mizzen were torne and rent
22. in peices, and the better part of them lost so as the sayd shipp and
23. her lading were in danger of being lost. the premisses he knoweth
24. to be true for the reasons aforesayd. And otherwise cannot depose
25. To the fourth article of the sayd allegation This deponent saith that the said shipp
26. Susan and Anne when she began the sayd voyage from the Barbadaos
27. for the sayd Port and before the sayd Hurricano and disasters befell
28. her as aforesayd, was a stanch and able shipp and sufficiently provided
29. for such a voyage. And the goods he saith were all well stowed and
30. dennaged, but the water came in in so extraordinary a manner when the
31. mayne mast was cutt downe that it rann downe into the hold and wasted
32. much of the sugars, and the topps heads of many of the Caske, being as should seeme
33. not so well fastned as they might have beene, became loose and fell out,
34. which losse and dammage he saith he could not be avoyded. And hee
35. saith that the lossening and falling out of the topps ˹or heads˺ of the sayd Caske
36. and the dammage and losse that before the sayd sugars was caused by the
37. violence of the sayd stormes, and disasters aforesayd. and not by any fault
38. or neglect of the sayd master and Company of Mariners or any of
39. them, which he knoweth being masters mate of the sayd shipp the sayd
40. voyage, and saving the premisses so fall out as hee hath declared
41. And otherwise hee cánnot depose, saving that hee likewise further
42. saith that ˹neither˺ the sayd Master or Mariners nor any of them did strike
43. out the heads of the sayd Caske, or embezall any of the sayd sugars
44. so farr as he knoweth beleiveth or hath heard
45. To thee last hee saith his deposition is true.
