leaning over the quarter of his the sayd Gouldings shipp called to the arlate
Richard Maundrey and sayd thus or the like in effect videlicet Dick I thinke
your Master (meaning the sayd Damerell) is madd to endeavour to worke
his shipp further into the Ice when there is noe possibility of gaineing
the harbour by reason of the abundance of Ice and great danger in
striveing too much And saith the sayd Pybus Golding Welch and Child
did of this deponents sight and knowledge give over endeavouring to gett
further into the Ice and went out with their shipps to Sea which notwith=
standing the sayd Damerell still persisted in his resolution of endeavouring
to get further into the Ice and commanded his company to gett their
boates in a readines to towe her in further into the Ice and then
the arlate Goslin (who was belowe deck when the sayd Goulding
spake the words predeposed of to the sayd Maundrey) came up from betweene
decks and speakinge to the sayd Damerell sayd thus or to the like effect
whether doe you intende to goe with the shipp and the sayd Damerell thereto
replyed and sayd what is that to you I looke not upon you (meaning the
sayd Gosling) as one to bee made acquainted, whereupon the sayd
Gosling answered thus or the like in effect I was told by Mr Batson
(meaning Mr Batson the party in this cause) that you nothing
should bee done by you of any great concernement without the advice

that it may endanger the shipp and all our lives and priudice the voyage
for ought I see, and therefore I pray consider of it for I beleeve
there are as able men in the other shipps (meaning the sayd Goldings
Welches Pybus and Childs shipps) who have given over attempting
to passe further into the Ice as any are in ours, and would as willingly
endeavour the advance of their voyage as wee would ours, and if
wee leave our Company (meaning the Company of the sayd shipps)
wee may repent it too late whereupon the sayd Damerell being
vexed at the sayd Goslings speeches did in an angrie manner
call the sayd Gosling rogue and pimpeing rogue and sayd that
hee looked upon him (meaning the sayd Gosling) but as upon one of his
Cabbin boyes all which the sayd Gosling did beare with much
patience and did not saye or doe any thing soe farr as this deponent
did or could heare see or observe which might bee preiudiciall
to the voyage in question but both hee and the arlate Maundrey did
obey the Commands of the sayd Damerell and did labour hard
them selves and encourage the shipps Company to labour in toweing
the sayd shipp further into the Ice according to the sayd Damerells commands
and laboured one whole day after the sayd Damerell left the company of
