[?nes] of him the sayd James Waring; which he deposeth for that he [?saith GUTTER]
the sayd dammage so done and same and knoweth the quality of the goods so
dammified and is well assured that the said Pilot had he done his duty might
have prevented the sayd dammage, by putting into the Channell [XXX XXXX XXX GUTTER]
served well for that purpose att that tyme, and another shipp which
was a head of the Exchange did safely putt into the Channell att that
tyme, and escaped that danger which the Exchange by not altering

To the Crosse Interrogatories [CENTRE HEADING]

To the 1st Interrogatories he saith that the sayd James Warren hath had the repute
of a sufficient Pilot to conduct a shipp out of this River into the downes

To the second Interrogatorie he saith the said James Warren did Pilot the said shipp
and brought her safely to Gravesend, and she was there cleared upon a

morning she was unmoved in order to fall downe to the Hope. And att that
tyme the wind was very high, howbeit other shipps as well of the Exchange
then likewise departed from Gravesend, and the said Warren Pilotted the
Exchange into the Hope without difficulty so farr as this Rendent
observed. And further knowing nothing of the interrogat passages
betwixt the sayd Wilkinson and Warren, he cannot depose.

To the third Interrogatorie he saith that the shipp Exchange was of about two
hundred tonnes burthen and twenty four men are a competent number
to sayle such a shipp upon such a voyage as was then intended and
that there were twenty four men as Mariners in the sayd shipp Exchange
the tyme in question, besides two boyes all being of her company. And [?that GUTTER]

wind from the North west and By west, but the sayd shipp came not to the [XX GUTTER]
narrow nor did edge in as is pretended by this Interrogatorie, but ćame [?neare GUTTER]
to the Woollpack which is out of the narrow, and there struck and left [?her GUTTER]
rudder, after the losse whereof the said shipp beat over that sand
and then cast anchor but not lyeing safely thene, but beating upon
another saw the Cables were of necessity to be cutt, and so the shipp [XX GUTTER]
over that other sands; And he saith it is true that the said Warren did steare [XXX GUTTER]
South East for the Redsand, and did afterwards and after that he [?had GUTTER]
mist or left his Course to the narrow whither he should have gone, [?endeavoure GUTTER]
to edge into the shoare South East and by South but that endeavour be [XX GUTTER]
