neere Lymehouse who upon search of her found that divers of her trumells
were started about the wrung heads and alsoe many Trummells in the floore of
the forepart of her started and drawne back, and her boltspritt and head broke
the repayre of which dammages and hurt receaved in manner aforesayd

further hee cannot depose/

To the 7th article hee saith that of his this deponents knowledge being Master of her
the shipp Pilgrim before the tyme shee receaved the hurt and dammage
predeposed of, was let out to freight by the moneth for twelve moneths certayne
and eighteene uncertayne and well knoweth that at the tyme shee receaved the

twelve monethes ertayne expired, And further to this article hee cannot depose/

To the 8th hee saith that hee this deponent being Master and part
Owner of the shipp the Pilgrim did since the dammage predeposed of happening
in the behalfe of him selfe and the sayd Bland and Company the Owners of
the sayd shipp require the arlate Woodfin to make satisfaction for the
hurt and dammage rpredeposed done to the sayd shipp, and the sayd Woodfin answeres
that what dammage he had done to the Pilgrim by his shipp the Exeter Merchant
falling fowle of her was occasioned by meanes of an other shipp
to which the Exeter Merchant was fastned which shipps company as hee sayd
cut the Exeter Merchants hawser and turned her on drift, and therefore hee
expected to recover of the Master and Company of that shipp whatsoever charges
and dammages hee this deponent should recover of him the sayd Woodfin
and thereupon the sayd Woodfin denyed or at least delayed to make
satisfaction for the sayd dammage And further referring him selfe to the
