[?working] her the shipp cleane; and forthwith there was calling from shore
and crying out that there was a man killed in a wherry, and that
the same happpened by the said shott; whereupon the said Gunner
was very lamentably amazed, and cried out what have I donne,
I know not that there was ought in the Gunne that could doe
any hurt, or to the same effect, and upon the report of the said Gunn
the said master and those that were with him ran out of the cabbin
and the master called out and asked what the Gunner had donne

seasonable or proper till his friends (whom hee meant to salute

with the master when the said accident happened, And further
saith that the said Gunner being disturbed with amazement
at the said accident, went presently out of the shipp privately
with out the masters knowledge, and hath ever since absented

the Cabbin to him) to make
the aftermost gun readie, but saith the said Gunner
by mistake made readie the foremost.
