which cost and much other dammage befallen the said shipp lillie, [?c]ame and
happened by the said shipp the Prince her comming fowle of her from time
to time as aforesaid, but the valew of the said dammage and charge
hee cannot estimate as hee saith. And otherwise hee cannot depose.

Rp.

To the first hee saith the master and three or fower more of the lillies company
besides this deponent were aboard her all the time of the said dammage
soe donne, and there knew three hired men [dXXXlX] and one other
that assisted them, and that d this deponent was only a common or foremast man of
the said shipp white lilly, whereof mr Betts had then the command. And
otherwise hee referreth himselfe to his foregoeing deposition.

To the second hee favoureth and would give the victory indifferently to the
parties.

To the third hee saith that hee cannot answer, saving some of the shipp
lillies sailes masts and rigging are old and some newer, and after the rate
of other shipps, but her cables were good and sufficient.

To the fourth hee saith it is usuall for shipps in the river of Thames to
lie moored neere each other, and often to have their cables thwart each others
but then they use to be moored a thwart, but the Prince was moored
head and sterne, which shee ought not to have bin, being in that manner
of mooring apt to come fowle of shipps that lie neere her, And
otherwise hee cannot answer savinge as aforesaid.

To the fifth and sixth hee saith the white lillies bolt Spritt
was made fast, And otherwise he cannot answer saving as aforesaid,
saving the Prince was [?und]ely and insufficiently manned.
