that were broken into his head, which as the said ffreeman said the
said Stuttin soe broke and wounded by striking the said John
on the head with a boate hooke staffe, and saith the said John
was in soe apparent hazard of his life with the said wounds
that in case hee had not had present help by Chirurgions
hee would undoubtedly have soone lost his life: And
saith the said wounds were soe greate and dangerous,
and hee is soe disabled thereby that hee will never in this

his head being soe weakened thereby that through the wall
of his skull and having but skin and a little flesh within it
over his dura and pia mater, a [?fillip] of the [?Juigar]

nor is hee able to rowe and worke as formerly nor ever

other on his back and other places of his body given him
by strokes with some greate staffe, or the like as to this

saith the said John Marten is not yet fully recovered, not
able to worke at his trade but weakely and to rowe
a little way as to and againe over the water and aboard
shipps to the greate losse of the producent, whereas before

Dura Mater

"Dura mater (UK /ˈdjʊərə ˈmeɪtər/ or US /ˈdʊərə ˈmætr/), or dura, is a thick membrane that is the outermost of the three layers of the meninges that surround the brain and spinal cord. It is derived from mesoderm.

The other two meningeal layers are the arachnoid mater and the pia mater. The dura surrounds the brain and the spinal cord and is responsible for keeping in the cerebrospinal fluid."
