To the first and second Interrogatories hee saith hee was none of the Company<br />
of the shipp ''dolphin'' the voyage in question nor helped to take in any of her<br />
ladeing nor did see her fully laden with goods nor sawe her ladeing<br />
delivered out but only measured her as aforesayd at the request of her<br />
owners And further hee cannot answere./
To the 3 and 4th hee saith the sayd shipp was measured at the request<br />
of Bartholmew Collier one of the Owners and of John Soly the master who<br />
desyred the same to be measured in behalfe of them selves and the rest of the<br />
Owners and saith the same was twice measured vicelicet once not long before the 14th of<br />
October aforesayd and saith the same was first soe measured by John Wadmore and<br />
Nathaniell Westland shippwrights servants of this deponent who<br />
tooke the dementions of the same from them and upon casting up thereof found her to bee in tonnage<br />
soe much as is predeposed, and saith that afterwards vicelicet after the sayd Wadmore<br />

Obee and Yethebridge did upon the sayd 14th of October 1656 at the request<br />
of the sayd Collyer and Soly measure her againe by hoopes and staves<br />

the burthen of three hundred fifty odd tonnes And hee this deponent<br />
is by such his measureing able to depose and doth depose that the sayd shipp<br />
is able to carrie three hundred fifty odd tonnes in Casks small and great<br />
from any ports to which it is fitt for her to trade to England (the danger<br />
of the seas excepted./
To the 5th hee answereth negatively verily beleeveing that the Master and<br />
Mariners of a shipp that doe actually lade a shipp cannot soe<br />
exactly depose touching what a shipp can carrie as they that measure her<br />
can, for that the Mariners take in much ballast of the quantitie whereof<br />
they keepe noe Accompt, as alsoe for that they many tymes want smale<br />
goods to fill up where greater goods will not stowe./
To the 6th hee answereth negatively to every part thereof./
To the last hee saith hee hath satisfied the contents thereof before /
