producents goods, was not nor is an usuall place for shipps to
ride there And further he cannot answere.
To the third, fourth and fifyju Interrogatoryes he answereth that he doth
not knowe of any such custome as for ffishermen to lay ou a boy
floating to give notice where their weeles and other goods lye, and he
saith that such an usage would be very preiudiciall unto ffishermen

former deposition he cannot answeare.
