Evidence from High Court of Admiralty

Thirty-five year old William Horne deposed on September 22nd 1655 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was examined on an allegation on behalf of Symon Beale in the case of "Beale against Goodin and Langdon".

William Horne stated that he had gone on two voyages in the ship the Providence of London, whose master was Symon Beale. The first vcoyage was to Lammaga and the second (in 1655) to Norway. Horne had been quarter master of the ship on the first voyage and boatswain on the second. Symon Beale was a part-owner of the ship.[1]

The case concerned a dispute over the lading of deales at Swinsound in Norway by the agents or factors of the freighters, Ambrose Gooding and Oliver Langdon. As boatswain, William Horne stated that "he was present at the delivery of every deale of the said shipps Lading here in the
River, and chalkt it up as he delivered them by particulers as by tenns, and that he the Rendent did by the said score or chalke give an account unto the master of the delivery of all and every part of the said seaven thousand sixe hundred and a halfe of deales".[2]
