Lancelot Russell

- "[March 8. (1653-4)] 39, Petition of Richard Childe, master, Wm. Fishman, part owner,
mate, and pilot, and the mariners of the Peace of London, to the
Protector. On a fishing voyage to Greenland, surprised the Frinte
of Rotterdam, laden with lead, hemp, 'and oil for Rochelle, and
brought her to England; but Hum. Beane and the rest of the
freighters have obtained an order from the late Council of State
[see 10 June 1653], whereby petitioners are deprived of any benefit
of the prize, though the Court of Admiralty can show no precedent
of freighters or merchants having an interest in such prizes, because
if they are injured, the owners are bound to make good to them.
Beg consideration of their pains and danger in taking the ship, and
an order for the proportion allowed to Beane, to avoid a tedious
suit in the Admiralty, which their employment in the service will
not allow them to attend. With order by the Protector, 22 Feb-
ruary 1653-4 that Council revoke the order of 10 June 1653, and
distribute the prize amongst the master, seamen, and mariners. [1 page.]
Annexing,
39. i. Certificate by Lancelot Russell and 14 others to the truth
of the petition, and also that the merchants concerned
were much profited by the voyage, Childe having killed
three whales before the other ships came. [1 page, 12
signatures.]"^[2]
