Gusd. All which he this deponent knoweth to be true for that he ćame a passenger in the sayd shipp from Elsineur and saw and was an eyewitnes of the premisses. And otherwise cannot depose To the .7th. article he saith that during the foresayd storme the sayd shipp did receyve great quantityes of water, and did often shipp whole seas together. And the sayd Master and Company plyed the pumps, and were as carefull as men could be each one in his place to preserve the sayd shipp, her lading and themselves, being all in extreme danger of having bene swallowed upp by the sea.
