and upon view found that although the same appeared to bee well stowed, yet
about 3/4th of the

the sayd Butt of sugar was consigned did abate the sayd Tottey out
of freight of other goods brought for him the sayd davies in the sayd shipp
the voyage in question in liew of the sayd sugar soe wanting in the sayd
butt, the summe of five pounds sterling beside the freight of the sayd
butt which accounted to about forty shillings more but by what
meanes the sayd dammage happened hee knoweth not And further to
