Company seeing the sayd Mate told this deponent that his Captaine, Captaine hudson had hyred that close lighter by the day
and therefore shee must be loaden first, and that therefore hee would lade nothing more on board the sayd open lighter till the next morning and soe some of the sayd Company by the Command of
the sayd mate stepped into the sayd open lighter and contrary to this
deponents mynde and will did loosen the roapes wherewith the sayd open
lighter was fastned to the sayd shipp syde and vered her downe bby the sayd shipps side neere towards the
seterne of the shipp to make roome for the cloase lyter to lye where the sayd
open lighter did and the sayd mate sayd they would lade noe more goods into teh sayd
open lighter till the next morning and willed this deponent to make
her well fast a sterne of the shipp whether they had vered her
and told this deponent that hee and the shipps company would take care
of her till next morning and willed this deponent and the sayd Purse
to come very early the next morning to take in the rest of the ladeing
which was to be laden on board the sayd open lyter, and thereupon the sayd
shipps company fell to ladeing of the sayd Cloase lighter it being layd where the open lighter formerly lay and laded
her fully and sent her away that night by the next tyde as hee beleeveth for that hee sawe her betymes in th enext morning with her ladeing at Galley Key but the sayd shipps Company refused
to put any more ladeing on board the sayd open lighter that night, whereupon
this deponent and the sayd Purse about 4 of the clock in the afternoone of the sayd Monday left
the sayd lighter and the goods in her then cleere from any damage by any wett and in as good condition as they were receaved into the sayd open lighter in the Custodie

was a stronge stanch and sufficient lighter and fitt to carrye Cotton woolls
and such goods as were put into her and noe way leakie or insufficeint./

To the sixth hee saith that what damage happened to the goods laden aboard
the sayd open lighter happened not by any defect or insufficiency of
the sayd lyter bit soe happened after this deponent and the sayd Purse had
left her under the care and custody of the Company of the shipp Smirna
ffactor who tooke upon them the care there of as aforesayd by whose negligence and default the damage controverted happened
as this deponent verily beleeveth And further hee cannot depose./

of whome as this deponent hath heard the arlate Captaine
hudson hyred the same and payed him freight for the acrriage of the
goods taken in to her as aforesayd out of the Smirna ffactor the

cannot depose: saving his foregoeing depositions to the first second
third fowerth and sixth articles of this allegation./
