of the Mary to gett able pilotts for dunkirke in the Sound intending
however to sayle and make their Course for London, but they could
procure but one pilot for all the sayd shipps who was to be payd
by shares and contributions by all the sayd shipps, and it was
agreed that lotts hould be cast in which of the sayd shipps the
sayd pilot should goe, and that the shipp upon which the lott fell
should leade the way and the rest follow, and that the lots being
cast the sayd Pilott dell to the shipp Vischer one of the sayd 3 shipps
Caspar Vischer master, who taking the sayd Pilot to him lead the
way and the Mary and the other shipps followed, and
the sayd shipp Vischer and two other arrived safely att this port
though pretending for dunkerke as aforesayd, as the shipp
Mary would have likewise done had it not bene for a disaster she
mett with for he saith that upon her Course and whilset she
followed the sayd shipp Vischer, they mett with violent tempetuous
weather with strong Contrary winds blowing from the west
which continued for 8 or 9 dayes, and separated the sayd shipp Mary
from the Vischer and other two shipps, and made her very
leaky and drove her upon the Coast of Holland, so as there
being but 6 mariners on board one whereof was sick and one
a boy not able to worke in such weather or att the pumpe, the
foresayd Martyn Bride for preserving of the sayd shipp and her lading
and persons on board was necessitated to putt into the ffly and
so to Enchusen all which this deponent knoweth being Cape merchant
on board the sayd shipp and privy to and an eyewitnes of the sayd
severall passages. And otherwise he cannot depose.

To the 4th article of the sayd allegation This deponent saith that being so come
to Enchusen the arlate Martyn Bryde and this deponent went
over to Amsterdam and there petitioned the Court of Admiralty for
license to depart with the sayd shipp and goods to dunkerke, which the
sayd Court refusing to give way to without sufficient and
able security given that the sayd goods should be unladen att
dunkerke this deponent endeavouring but not being
able to give such security though promised by one freind
whom the Court would not accept, was enforced to dispose
the sayd goods in Holland, which he deposeth being privy
to the foresayd transactions and otherwise he cannot depose.
