Thirty-two year old Andrew Harris deposed on January 16th 1656 in the High Court of Admiralty.[2] He was examined on a libel in the cause of "John Grant against Mathew Pinder".[3]
The case concerned the arrest of the ship the Elizabeth of Sandwich, whose master, John Grant or Grannt, was also a one eighth owner of the ship and her lading of coals.The ship had been arrested at the order of Mathew Pinder (alt. Pindar), and Andrew Harris deposed in support of John Grannt. Harris declared his own interest in the case, since he himself owned a one sixteenth part of the Elizabeth.
Andrew Harris estimated the value of the lading of Newcastle coals which had been seized with the ship at £80. He suggested that John Grannt had lost £20 "which he might have gott by going master of the said shipp, had he not bin kept out of possession of her by the arlate Pindar" and had lost a further £10, being one igth of the value of the lading of coal".[4]
Harris commented that some seven or eight weeks after being dispossessed of his ship, John Grannt had sold his own spart of the Elizabeth, with one sixteenth part going to William Hills and the other one sixteenth part going to Valentine Jenkins.[5]
