To the sixteenth article of the sayd allegation This deponent saith that the sayd Henry<br />

To the first he saith he understandeth well the nature of an Oath and the<br />
danger of periury; And saith the sayd shipp the ''Hopewell'' arrived<br />
att Antego upon or about the 14th day of October 1652. and continued<br />
there about 16 dayes before she was seized, which he knoweth being one<br />
of her Companye.
To the second he saith that as he beleiveth the sayd Powell and his Mariners<br />
applying themselves constantly to their work according to their duty<br />
might have laden the ''Hopewell'' in twenty dayes, and not in lesse<br />
tyme, which he knoweth for that the worke was too difficult and over<br />
great to have bene performed by the sayd Powell and Company being<br />
but about 16 men and two boyes. and otherwise negatively
To the third Interrogatorie He saith that about seven or eight of the ''Hopewells''<br />
Company did spend about two or three dayes in Cutting of wood by Captain<br />
Powells order but not wastfully but for the necessary service of the<br />
shipp, and saith that about two of the marriners or shipps boyes of the<br />
''Hopewell'' did upon severall dayes the number whereof he knowes not<br />
hawle turtles , and the sayd Henry Powell sometymes went himselfe<br />
but how often he knoweth not and beleiveth that in the hawling of turtles<br />
there was spent in all the sayd severall tymes about 12 howres and not more, and saith the sayd<br />
12 howres were not wastfully spent as he beleiveth being taken in the<br />
morning or evening of the say, and the sayd Turtles by them caught<br />
being an usefull food for the shipps Companie as aforesayd. And otherwise<br />
he cannot depose, saving that he knoweth and beleiveth the foresayd premisses<br />
being one of the ''Hopewells'' Company and present att Antego.
To the 4th Interrogatorie he saith that Captaine Powell aforesayd did about two<br />
datyes before the seizure of the sayd shipp as aforesayd take four of his<br />
shipps Company with him in a boat of 4 tonnes or thereabouts to the Island<br />

the seizure and returned back upon the Tuesday then next following<br />
being the third day after the seizure. And otherwise he cannot depose
To the .5.th he saith that the sayd Powell and his Company if they had<br />
continued constantly att worke might have laden the ''Hopewell'' in 20 days<br />
and not lesse, and that more men might have done the sayd worke in<br />
lesser tyme but in how much lesse he knoweth not. And saith he beleiveth<br />
the sayd Powell might have hired men att Antegoe, but not Mariners<br />
and further otherwise than negatively he cannot depose.
