To the 5th hee saith hee knoweth that two Cables of the shipp aforesayd
by reason of their hollennesse were at the Barabados fastened to one
Another the better to make them hold which not withstanding they both
brake with the weight of the Anchor by reason of their rottennesse
and the Anchor was thereby lost though the shipps
company did their Endeavor to save the same, and had as much care
as might bee of the sayd shipps tackle, And hee saith that the sayd
Cables being espied to bee about to breake henry Turpin the
Masters Mate did adventure into the water up to the Arme pitts
to fasten a roape to the Anchor to save it before the Cables were
quite broken, but before hee could gett the same fastened the
Cables brake by which meanes the Anchor was lost this hee deposeth
of his sight and knowledge And further to this article hee cannot
depose./

To the 6th hee saith that of his this deponents sight and observation
the sayd shipps company did use their best care and diligence to
preserve the sayd shipps tackle and alsoe her lading on board her
from dammage and hurt And hee saith that after the sayd shipps
arrivall at Greenewich with her homewards lading, or soe much
thereof as shee had not delivered before her coming thither, there

shipp the Edward and John, the sayd shipps company did labour and
lade some goods on board the sayd lighter and then romageing
among the goods with intent to lade more, they found that some
Caskes of suger were about halfe empty and that some caskes
had taken wett to the endamagement of the sugar in them and
the sayd Turpin and other of the shipps company told the sayd
Captaine Tottie thereof and desyred the sayd Toltie that before
any more goods were unladen a view might bee made of what
dammage was happened to the lading that it might appeare
the better what occasioned the same, or to that effect, but the sayd
Totty would not then cause any view to bee made, but commanded
the shipps Company to lade the lighter, and divers of the
shipps Company forbearing to worke and saying they would
have the goods viewed first, the said Totty went on shoare
hyred labourers and with their helpe and the helpe of this deponent
and sixe or eight more of the sayd shipps Company the sayd lighter
was fully laden and sent away by the sayd Totty, And hee saith
that afterwards by the procurement of William huggery the Masters
Mate, and of the Carpenter of the sayd shipp, two men were
procured to survey the sayd shipp and goods, to see by what cause
the dammage came, after which survey the shipps company soe many
as had not ocassion to bee absent, or were not pressed away into the
