==Biographical synthesis==
Thomas Basse (alt. Base) (b. ca. 1625; d. ?).

Resident in 1653 in Saxmunded in the county of Suffolk.

==Evidence from High Court of Admiralty==
Twenty-eight year old Thomas Basse deposed on December 14th 1653 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was examined on an allegation in the cause of "Richard Hall John Hallett".<ref>[[HCA 13/68 f.337v Annotate|HCA 13/68 f.337v]]</ref>

The case concerned a voyage to Zant in the Mediterranean in a ship named the ''Agreement'', a ship of tweo hundred tuns burthen and eighteen guuns.<ref>[[HCA 13/68 f.338v Annotate|HCA 13/68 f.338v]]</ref>

Arriving at Zant, the master and company of the ''Agreement'' found few oils to lade. "Only some of the mariners laded in there some small Adventures in Currants which afterwards were saely brought to Coronna".<ref>[[HCA 13/68 f.338r Annotate|HCA 13/68 f.338r]]</ref> At the request of George ffarington, the Zant factor, the ''Agreement'' sailed to Coronoa "about 30. leagues farther for the taking up the sayd oyles there". But Thomas Basse and his fellow mariners "knowing how dangerous a place Corona was and how much the passage was infested by pyrates absolutely refused to goe to Corona unlesse they might be fully secured to and att Corona and from thence back againe to Zant". Basse describes a "contract and covenant" being drawn up between Giles Lawrence, the master of the ship, and George ffarington the factor, promising to secure the ship and mariners.<ref>[[HCA 13/68 f.338r Annotate|HCA 13/68 f.338r]]</ref>

DEspite the promised security, the ship was attacked fifteeen leagues outside Zant on its return trip by a Triply man of war and "her oyes were burnt blowne up and lost in the seas". Giles Lawrence, Thoamas Basse, and "several others of the shipps company that escaped alive from that calamity were carryed to Tripoly and there made slaves for about 16 monethes".
