her againe firme and tight to goe to sea And further to this article hee
cannot depose

To the 4th hee saith that the sayd leake and mayne night being mended the
sayd shipp againe set out to sea from Cadiz to goe for England but about
the sixth of ffebruary last past in the English Channell mett with an other very
violent storme which alsoe continued the space of eight howers and more and beate
with such violence upon the sayd shipp that the waves often washing over
the decks thereof shee could not in all probability but receive in much
water And saith that in case any damage have happened to any of the
sayd shipps ladeing, the same was occasioned by the violence of the
foresayd stormes and not by any defect of the sayd shipp for that hee knoweth
the sayd shipp before the sayd stormes happened, was tight and sufficient and soe
still is, And for that hee knoweth that the Company of the sayd shipp did
their utmost endeavour (both by carefull stowing the goods in her, and diligent
plying the pumpe soe often as occasion required) to revent and damage
being done to the sayd shipps ladeing And further hee cannot depose./

To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true/

Merchandizes to be thence transported to London And saith the sayd shipp
sett sayle from thence with the sayd goods for London in the sayd moneth of december
and about the 22th of the same moneth the sayd shipp being
neere the Southward Cape met with a very violent storme which
continued at least fower and twenty howers with such violence that the sayd
shipps company were forced to take in all their sayles and durst beare noe
sayle out. for feare the same should have bin the occasion to cause the sayd shipp
and goods to perish and founder in the seam and soe violent the sayd storme was
that although the sayd shipp bore out noe sayle yet it forced her to drive and
kye alonge upon her side in the sea whereby shee could not possibly but receive
