of warr are very fearefull to come out with their boates, and cannot
come out if any ill weather happen, And further saving his subsequent
deposition hee cannot depose

To the 3 article he saith for that hee kept a journall of the passages in
the voyage in question hee knoweth that the sayd daniell came with his
shipp the Anne neere Porto Port upon or about the 12th of November
1654 and about two or three of the clock in morning, at which
tyme it was very darke, and the winde blew Easterly and very
scant, by reason whereof and of the darkenesse the sayd daniell did
overshoote the sayd Port about three or fower leagues to southwards
And further hee cannot depose

To the 4th 5th 6th and 7th articles that upon the hee saith that the same
12th day of November the sayd Jeggles when it was cleere day
did take observation of the latitude hee was in, and thereby found
that hee had overshott the sayd Port, and therupon the sayd Jeggles
tacked about and made upto the sayd Port soe fast as the winde and weather
would permitt, and came before the sayd Port againe upon the thirteenth
of the sayd moneth, and (according as is usuall in such cases) made
a weft and shott two or three shotts to two or three boates they espied, to have a pylott
come aboard to carry in the sayd shipp, but the sayd boates companyes
fearing (as this deponent beleeveth) that the Anne was some Turkish
man of warr diverse of them frequenting that coast) made awaye,
and would not come neere the Anne and the Anne having waited
in expectation of a pylott till the flood was spent and night began
to approach it being and noe Pylott arriving from shoare, and it being
likely to prove fowle weather, the sayd Jeggles to prevent the danger of
being driven on shoare with his shipp, stood off to see for the
better security of her, her ladeing and Companyes lives, And saith
the sayd thirteenth day at night the weather proved very stormy and
the winde blew very strong to shoare, soe that in this deponents Judgement
and in the Judgement of other semen of the Annes Company if the sayd
shipp had not put out to sea as shee did, but layne all night before
Porto Port, shee and her ladeing together with her Company had
without doubt perished in the sea, And hee saith that the weather continued
very tempestuous on the fourteenth of the sayd moneth and the
winde shifted and came Northerly for that (in this deponents Judgement)
there was noe possibility of gaining Porto Port untill the winde and
weather did alter, and there upon Edmond Cowse the brother
of the articulate James Cowse did upon the shipps deck openly saye (before
this deponent and severall others of the sayd shipps Company whose names
hee at present remembereth not) that it was better for the sayd shipp to goe
