1. of the steeving geere are burst and other inconveniencies happen
2. to the great retarding of the worke, so as he saith that ordinarily
3. the number of men interrate in a vessell of the tonnage interro=
4. gate may receyve on board and steeve about eight baggs a day
5. one day with another, And otherwise he cannot depose.
6. To the 15th he saith that on the say interrate there was not roome in the
7. sayd shipp to have receyved the number of baggs interrate without
8. steeving, for he saith there was not roome enough safely to have
9. layd att that tyme one bagg without steeving. And otherwise
10. he cannot depose.
11. To the 16th he saith that when the Thomas Bonadventure ćame from Ciprus
12. shee could not have ćarryed thirty tonnes of cotton woolls more than were
13. laden in her, howbeit when she ćame to Zant she might and did
14. receyve thirty tonnes of Currants; the reason of which difference is
15. from the different qualities of the sayd merchandizes bećause Currants may
16. safely and well be stowed any where in the hold and in the traveway of
17. woolls, but the sayd traveway was not halfe long enough to receive such
18. a quantity of woolls in regard of the great length of the sackes, and
19. for that Currants may be are laden without steeving which wools cannot
20. safely be, neyther ćan be steeved without a sufficient trave way. And
21. otherwise saving that the sayd Currants were in butts he ćannot depose.

28. Gregorie Creyk of Marton in the County of Yorke merćhant,
29. aged twenty four yeares or thereabouts a witnes produced
30. sworne and examined deposed and saith as followeth videlicet.
31. To the first and second Articles of the sayd allegation, This deponent saith, That the arlate
32. shipp The Thomas Bonadventure arrived att Ciprus from Scanderon ˹XX˺ XXXXXXXXXX
33. XXXXX and XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX the voyage in question, after which her arrivall there
34. were laden on board her a great quantity of Cotton woolls by the allegat
35. Roger ffooke English Consull there, of the certayne knowledge
36. of this deponent, who was then att Ciprus (as he had bene for about four
37. yeares before) and lived and lodged in one and the same howse with the
38. sayd Consull, and saw the sayd woolls weighted. but the number of the
39. baggs hee remembreth not. And the greatest part of the sayd woolls
40. were, as he then heard, for the freighters of the sayd shipp, and
41. one smaller parcell was as he likewise heard, for one Mr Rich of London.
42. And otherwise he cannot depose.
43. To the 3. and 4th articles of the sayd allegation he saith that the sayd shipp the Thomas
44. Bonadventure was in this deponents Judgment of the burthen of about
45. two hundred and seventy, or two hundred and eighty tonnes, and had
46. about the number of men arlate in her the tyme aforesayd, which
47. number of men, by what he hath seene, observed and heard, during his
48. sayd four yeares abode att Ciprus, may receyve, and steeve upon a shipp
49. of such tonnage, about eight or att most nyne baggs ˹a day˺ one day with another
50. from the first beginning of her steeving till she have recyved her full
51. Cargo, and not more, the reason whereof he hath observed to be partly the greatnes
52. of the baggs and their bulke and weight, which renders them
53. difficult to mannage and steeve, and partly the extraordinary labour that
54. still encreases as the shipp fills, so as the greater quantity of goods a
55. shipp hath in her, the more and greater is the labour and difficulty of steeving
56. wools upon her. And soe much he hath well seene and observed as
57. aforesayd. And othewise cannot depose/
