Aged 42 yeares or thereabouts a witnes sworne and

[ADD DATA]

The arlate William Jope had on the 26th day of July last about seaventeene able English seamen ready
to sayle with him on the voyage mentioned in the Charterparty arlate whereof
this deponent was one and in persuance of such his sayd voyage did with his
sayd men that day breake ground from Rederiff or thereabouts but the winde being [?XX]
was enforced to meare neere thereabouts againe and shortly afte divers
of the sayd shipps company were pressed as this deponent beleeves, but hee did
not see any of them pressed except the Gunner and Boatswaine thereof who were pressed before the shipp [?XXXXXXXXXX] by reason hee this deponentw as gone on shoare to escape pressing
if hee could, and this deponent afterwards returning on board found that divers
were pressed away and the sayd Jope being in want of men and English men being hard to be gotten
hee signed certaine dutch men to assiste him to sayle the sayd shipp downe to Quin=
borowe where hee was to take in the remaynder of his outward lading and a wherry to bringe them back from thence and did with
the helpe of the sayd dutch men and him selfe and his Mate and Pilott with
much difficulty by gods blessing arrive safely with the said shipp at Quinboorowe on
Satturday the thirtith day of July last and this deponent and the [?rest] of the sayd shipps company to avoide pressing came downe in the said wherry and came that night on board at Quinborowe And further hee cannot depose saving hee
saith hee beleeveth and is perswaded in his conscience that it cost the sayd Jope in
extraordinary expenses in hyering the sayd fflemings and for the wherry to carry
back the sayd fflemings from Quinborowe and other charges which hee would
not to have bin at if hee could have kept his owne Company in board
above tenn pounds sterling./

To the 6th and 7th articles of the sayd allegation hee saith that the sayd shipp arriving
late at Quinborowe on the Satterday there was then only one hoy and noe more with
wheate from Mr ffairfax arlate to be laded on board teh said shipp the Endeavour
which hoye had not above a third parte of the Corne which was afterwards
laded for the sayd ffairfax Accompt on board the sayd shipp whereupon the arlate
Jope went the next workeing day videlicet on the Monday Morning next from Quinsborow to ffeversham to hasten the comeing of the resideue of the sayd Corne
and returne on shipp board the same Monday at night, and seeing that notwithsatnding
his endeavours noe more corne was sent hee the sayd Jope on the Wednesday morning
sent the arlate Pendarvis to hasten away the remaynder of the corne which was
to be laden and thereupon an other hoye came and brought an other parcell of
wheate but not all which was to have bin sent, soe that the first hoy was faine to
goe back to ffeversham and fetch the remaynder of the sayd Corne which the
second hoy had not brought, and returned not therewith untill Satterday the [?XX]
of August last And further to these articles he cannot depose.
