To the first and second Interrogatoryes he answereth and
saith that he this Respondent well knoweth the interrogate
shipp the Su[nne], having gone Masters Mate in her, a
voyage before the interrate voyage to Caen, and that
she was a little leaky when she went from England
to Caen, which occasioned the trimming of her there at Caen,
soe that she was as firme and as a tight a shipp, as
a shipp could possibly be, and that they did sometime to
use their pompe see if they could pompe any water
out of her, and that noe water would come, And he
further saith that the goods in her were all very dry and
well conditioned (in all their iudgements, untill such time as she came to or neere

of October last past, where she mett with an extraordinary
storme and tempest in her passage homeward, and that
at that instant thére was an extraordinary fogg or mist
and that the sayd shipp was by reason of the said storme ór
tempest in very great perill or danger of perishing, and
in that tempest and fogge was driven on shoare, and that by her
being soe driven a shoare she became very leaky, and that
then the water came into the sayd shipp amongst her goods
And he answereth and saith that his conscience tells him that
if the sayd tempest or storme had not befalne the sayd shipp
she had brought her goods in a good and well cond[ition GUTTER]
to London, that there would not have been tenn shillings
damage in all to the goods, And further he knoweth
not to answeare./.

To the third Interrogatory he saith that for the keeping and
preserving dry the goods that had not caught wett
