To the 12th hee saith hee hath known the arlate Gosling and Maundry
for these 3 yeares last past during which tyme they have used the
ffishing trade at Greenland (and as hee hath heard, for many yeares
before that) and saith they are of his knowledge honest sober men and
of good conversation and soe Accompted, and have gone officers and
Mariners severall voyages thither and discharged their places faithfully
hee having gone severall voyages with them thither before the voyage in
question And further hee cannot depose/
To the 13th hee saith that if the foresayd damerell
and Company of the Owners Adventure having espied the whales arlate
at sea the sayd damerell the shallopps belonging to the sayd shipp to bee
manned to chase her, and accordingly the harponeeres which were
Gosling, Maundrie, Humfreys, Parker, Bowling and Kirke did
every of them in severall shallopps with five men beside them
selves in every shallopp to assiste them (whereof this deponent was
one belonging to Maundries Shallopp) give chase to the sayd ˹whale˺ for
about an hower and a halfes tyme and seeing her soe swifte that
they could not come neere her, all the shallopps and their Companys
except the sayd Parkers) went aboard and gave over the chase, and the
sayd Parker staying behinde, the fish altering her course
came soe neere him that hee gott the oportunnitie to fasten to her
and having soe done made a waste to give notice that hee was
fast, whereupon the sayd Maundry Gosling and the rest of the harponeeres

after shee felt her selfe pricked not being able to keepe
way with her were forced to laye hold on the sayd Humfreys
boate and make fast thereto untill any oportunitie would offer to

up and downe about eight or tenn howers, and at length towed
them and their boates soe farr into a growne sea that most of the
boates were ready to be overwhelmed and their Companies
in of great danger of being drowned,
whereupon there being noe hopes of killing her, shee still
running soe swift that the shipp would hardly keepe way with her
boates Company and all the rest of the harponeeres and their
Companies (except the sayd Parker and humfreys and their Companies
who were fast to the whale) cast off their fasts which they
had made to Humfreys shallopp and came on board, and the
sayd humfrey and Parker continueing their hold and the
shipp comming somwhat neere the whale, the sayd Humfrey and
