6. To the 3 article of the sayd allegation that upon or about the twelfth
7. of November 1654 and about two or three of the Clock in the morning
8. (it then being very darke by reason the moone was then sett) the sayd Daniell
9. Jeggles came with his shipp the Anne whereof he was Master neere to
10. Porto Port articulate at which tyme hee well remembereth there bl did blow
11. a very scant Easterly gale of wynde And saith that by reason of the scantnesse
12. of the winde and darkenesse of the morning the sayd Daniell Jeggles and his
13. Company did overshoote the sayd port of Porto Port about three or fower
14. leagues and not above, and were to the southwards of it about three or fower
15. leagues betwixt it and a place called Avero the premisses hee deposeth
16. of his owne knowledge being one of the sayd shipps Company and
17. then upon the watch when the Port was soe overshott by reason of the
18. darkenesse ˹of the morning˺ and scantenesse of the winde as aforesayd And further
19. to this article hee cannot depose
20. To the 4th 5th and 6th ˹and 7th˺ articles of the sayd allegation hee saith and deposeth
21. that the next day after (as hee remembereth the 13 of the sayd moneth) the

23. and as is usuall for shipps in such case to doe shott off severall
24. gunnes to give notice for a pylott to come aboard to carrie in the
25. sayd shipp, but none came from shoare, though the sayd Jeggles stayed in
26. expectation thereof severall houres and the flood being spent, and
27. night approaching and the winde beginning to be high, and it being likely
28. to prove fowle weather, the sayd Jeggles to prevent danger of his shipp ˹being˺ driven
29. on ground did for the more securitie of her and her ladeing and her companys
30. lives carry her off to sea further from shoare And the same night it proved
31. very stormie weather and the winde blew very strongly toward shoare soe
32. that in this deponents judgement hee verily beleeveth and is perswaded in
33. his conscience had the sayd shipp continued all night before Porto Port and
34. Xx xxx not made out to sea as shee did, shee would by the violence of the
35. winde have bin driven on shoare and bin in great danger of perishing
36. in the sea both shee and her ladeing and her Company, and soe much was
37. manifest and apparent to all the sea men then on board her and hee saith
38. that the next day (being the fourteenth of the sayd moneth) the winde blew
39. Northerly and the weather continued very stormie and tempestious
40. soe that unlesse the winde and weather had altered there was in this deponents
41. judgement and the judgement of the rest of the seamen aboard noe hope to gaine
42. Porto Port, and therupon the sayd Jeggles did by order of the articulate
43. James Cowse his brother Edmond Cowse (as James Mansfeild) the Masters
44. Mate and others of the sayd shipps Company who affirmed they heard the
45. sayd Edmond Cowse give such order to the sayd Jeggles told this deponent
46. and as this deponent beleeveth alsoe for that hee heard the sayd Edmond Page
47. alsoe upon the open deck before this deponent and others of the shipps company saye)
48. it was better to make to some Port then continue at sea the weather being soe
