and company and passengers in her were in … and company and passengers in her were in eminent danger of perishing<br />
and sinkeing in the sea whereupon it was by the advise of the sayd<br />
Croford and his mates and the passengers aboard agreed that for the preservation<br />
of the sayd shipp and their lives it was more [?ffaire] to throwe some goods over<br />
board to lighten the shipp whereupon the sayd eight hogsheads of sugar and some other<br />
goods which laye betweene decks and were most cumbersome and trouble<br />
some to the hinderance of the preservation of the sayd shipp and the rest of her ladeing<br />
were throwne over board and were lost and perished in the sea, which could<br />
not bee avoided without the eminent hassard of the losse of the shipp and<br />

verily beleeveth and is perswaded in his conscience that the sayd Croford and<br />
Company would not have taken the sayd Bellingers eight hogsheads<br />

same aboard by the sayd bellingers promise to runne the risque<br />
thereof if any casualty came thereto as aforesayd And further hee<br />
cannot depose./
