nyne and twentith of the sayd moneth of december 1654 the sayd shipp being
then [?thwart] Cadiz an other violent storme happened which continued
about the space of eight howers with such force and furie that the sayd
shipp Mary and Anne was not able to brace any sayle nor durst beare any
for feare of foundering in the sea and the shipps company seeing their perill were minded to have heaved some goods over board for the better preservation of the sayd shipp and the sayd shipp by reason of the violence
of the sayd storme sprange a leake and receaved in much water, but
the winde turning contrary to the point it blew in the tempest aforesayd the
arlate Mr Greene (Master of the sayd shipp) and his Company put in to
Cadiz and there stoppt her sayd leake and made her stanch and fitt to goe to sea
againe the premisses hee deposeth for the reason aforesayd And
further to this article hee cannot depose./

To the 4th hee saith that the sayd shipp being soe repayred and fitted to goe
againe to sea shee sett sayle from Cadiz bound for England And
about the sixth of ffebruary in the English Channell mett with an other
very violent storme which continued alsoe about eight howers and by the
violence thereof the waves beate soe upon the sayd shipp that they often
tymes ranne over the decks in soe much that the sayd shipp could not
choose in all probability but take in and did take in much water but saith
if any damaged happened to the goods on board her the same happened not
by any defect of the sayd shipp who was before the sayd stormes and
still is a stronge tight shipp, but meerely by the violence of the sayd
stormes And saith hee well knoweth the goods on board the sayd shipp
were well and carefully stowed And that the Mariners and Company of
the sayd shipp did their utmost endeavour by plying the pumpe at all
tymes when occasion require, and all other waies, to prevent any damage
to their ladeing on board this hee knoweth being one of the Company as
aforesayd and an eye witnesse And further hee cannot depose./

To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true/

Repeated before doctor Clarke./
