Transcription

And further saith that after hee had order to bringe the said shipp the
Prophet Elias to London (with the rest taken in her company) his
this deponents said Captaine sent the three men of the Elias her
company that were aboard the frigot, aboard the said shipp the
Prophet Elias, expectivng that this deponent and company should
have had their help to bring up the said shipp, but after their comming
aboard, they looked upon the same to see howe the winde was, which
was then at Nore-Nore-West, after they had soe seene howe
the winde was, the Jew was confederating with
them which way to run away with the shipp, [?soe] the men declaring
to the Jew that the three Jewes who were in the cabbin, should
destroy this deponent in the night in the greate cabbin and cutt
cables in the hawse, and they would doe well enough to make away
with the rest of the company and soe run away with the shipp, it
being a fitting night for such an oportunitie, there being a fresh
gale, and darke, and said, what neede they care to doe it,
seeing the shipp went wondrous well; whereupon one of this
deponents company, having the lingua as perfect as themselves
and over heard what they said, came presently and called this
deponent unto the forecastle, and declared their designe unto
him, and thereupon the prize master of dover comming by
in the downes in the Captaines Skiffe to goe ashore, this deponent
and all the rest of his company aboard the said shipp the Prophet
Elias called out to him to come aboard, which the three dutch men
that soe were come from aboard the frigot hearing, one of
them ran downe betweene decks and hidd himselfe in a drie fatt,
And that after the said prize master came aboard, this deponent and
company all sesired him to take the thre dutch men that came
from aboard the frigot, the Jew and the Stiersman and carry them
with him ashore, for that they had confederated to run away with
the shipp that night; whereupon the prize master calling for
them all to come into the boate, the Jew was very backward
in comming, but after hee was in, and they missing the man that
was run downe betwixt decks, and searched the shipp
for him, and were almost halfe an houre before they could find
him, and finding him in the drie fatt, they pulled him out by the
heeles, and afterwards it was as much as three of them could doe
to get him over the wast into the boate, and from that time
there was peace and quietnesse in the shipp, but the prize master
of dover, being sear full, sent some souldiers aboard, and two
sea men with a pilot, for securitie of carrying up the shipp, because
of the said disturbance that had before happened
