Twenty-eight year old Thomas Tymon deposed on August 22nd 1655 in the High Court of Admiralty.[1] He was examined on interrogatories on behalf of Michaell Spicer in the case "On the behalfe of Michaell Spicer of London merchant concerning a losse in the Michaell of London".[2]

Thomas Tymon stated that the ship the Michaell was at Palma in May 1654, bound for Galloway in Ireland. The ship was loaded with "about fowerscore pipes of Canary wynes and a parcell of sassaperilla and other druggs, and some Brazill wood and fustick, the quantitie of them hee knoweth not but saith the sayd shipp being about 40 or 50 tonnes". Michaell Spiecer was the sole proprietor of the goods. The ship arrived safely at Galloway in June 1655. After discharging part of her cargo of wines and then departed for Wexford or Waterford to discharge the remainder of her goods. En route she was seized by a Brest man of war and carried to Roscoe in France, where the goods were confiscated and the ship declared prize.[3]

Thomas Tymon "had the mannagement and disposall of the sayd shipps cargo comitted to him by the producent, who gave this respondent order touching the disposall thereof before his this rendents goeing to Palma." Tymon took payment for the forty pipes of Canary wine he sold in Galloway through a bond for £400, payable "at sixe months tyme at London to the producent Michaell Spicer, for whose accompt the sale thereof was made."[4]
