a sterne, or beare off, and doe anything that was fitting soe they might

the tyde were spent that they might make faste to the chayne, And further

To the 6th saving his foregoeing deposition and his answere to the 4th Interrogatorie
hee cannot more fully answere./.

To the 7th Interrogatorie hee answereth that the Company of the Shipp the Exeter
Marchant did twice fasten a hawser to the Cable of the ffrancis and
Mary, the first tyme was without the leave of Smith the Master of the sayd
ffrancis and Mary, supposeing hee would not denye them soe to doe, it being
a usuall custome for shipps to fasten one to an other in the River of Thames
for one tyde, which hawser that was first fastned being cast of

that the master of the ffrancis and Mary did give him leave to fasten a hawser
to her cable, for that the sayd Woodfin called out from thence to his Company to
bringe a hawser, which accordingly brought one, and the second tyme made the

for one tyde and further hee cannot answere./.

To the 10th hee answereth negatively videlicet that it is more usuall for
shipps that come laden home, when they come into the River of Thames
and ups soe high as Lymehouse to fasten aboard other shipps for a
tyde, till they can heave up the chayne and fasten thereto then to moore,
