beleeveth noe shipp ought to ride at Anchor in the River of Thames without
a boy at their Anchor and that those that transgresse in that kinde are lyable to
make good what damage happeneth to any other shipp for want of the same and
are fineable alsoe for the same./

To the 4th hee cannot depose

To the 5th hee referreth him selfe to the rules and orders arlate and further
cannot depose/

To the 6th hee cannot depose

To the 7th and 8th hee saith the arlate shipp the Imployment within the tyme arlate
moored neere the middle of the Thames neere Execution dock and in
a Convenient place there and such a place as was in all probability and outward
appearance a safe place to moore in, where shee laye safe moored of this
deponents sight and knowledge at the least fower or five tydes before the samage
in question happened this hee deposeth for that hee liveth neere the place where
shee was soe moored and sawe her dayly and was alsoe one of the sixteene men
that was hyred by the sayd Bayly to unlade her then ladeing of coles
and did helpe to unlade about forty or fifty chalder of Coales from on board
her but the next day before the damage in question happened and
observed that they were all [?XXX] drye and well conditioned And further to these
articles hee cannot depose/

To the 9th 10th 11th 12th 13th 14th 15th and 16th articles of the sayd
libell hee saith that for that hee was imployed as aforesayd to helpe
to unlade the sayd shipp the Imployment and wrought upon her as aforesayd hee well
knoweth before the damage in question happened the sayd shipp was stanch
and tight, And saith the sayd Bayly did at first before the sayd
damage happened agree with this deponent and his contest Richard Wincles
and fowerteene other Coaleheavers at the rate of twelve shillings a man
to unlade the sayd shipps ladeing of Coles and this deponent and the
rest of the sayd Coleheavers according to the sayd bargaine did fall to
worke and unlade about forty or fifty chalder of Coales out of the sayd shipp
the day next before the damage in question happened (which was in the moneth
of October last) and intended to proceede on with the delivery of the rest
at the same rate, but saith the next day after they had soe unladed the sayd
forty or fifty chalder of Coales as this deponent and the rest of the sayd Coale
heavers were goeing towards the sayd shipp to worke the sayd John Bayly
mett them and told them his sayd shipp was about suncke and desired
them for Gods sake to make all the hast on board they could and to fall to worke
to lighten her and told them hee would goe to Billingsgate and hyre men to
come aboard and pumpe and bayle her thereby to keepe her above water, whereupon
this deponent and the rest of the sayd Coleheavers made hast aboard but
at their comming on board found her soe deepe in water in the hold that
they thought fitt not to fall to worke till the sayd Bayly returned on
board
