Imployment and soe cleare her of water that they might get her to shoare
to harde ground to stopp her leake which the sayd Anchor had
made, but saith that notwithstanding all their indeavour it was five
tydes after her sayd dammage receaved before the Imployment could

five tyses (beside his owne company and other freinds who came gratis
out of love to helpe) at the least three score hyred men who
pumped and bayled and laboured all that tyme to get her to harde ground
And hee this deponent sawe the master of the Imployment pay some
who soe wrought for hyre halfe a crowne a tyde and others three
shillings a tyde for their labour and verily beleeveth it could not nor
