Transcription

To the first article hee saith that hee this deponent was Cooper of
the shipp the Edward and John the voyage in question, and that hee and her
company entered into whole paye that voyage the second of June 1655
and continued in service on board her till the two and twentith of
July 1656 and that during that tyme hee and they did
doe their dutyes as Mariners in her for preservation of her and her ladeing
and such things as they were required to doo by the arlate Tottey
and further hee cannot depose/

To the second hee saith hee knoweth that there were twenty sixe
horses and gueldings and two mares put on board the sayd shipp/
The Edward and John to bee transported to the Barbadoes to whome
they were consigned, two of which horses or gueldings dyed at
sea by the way, and the rest the sayd Totty carried safely to the
Barbadoes after severall owners came to demande them
and saith the sayd Chamberlaine came on board the sayd shipp at
the Barbadoes after severall horses had bin delivered to other persons,
and openly upon the deck
in hearing of this deponent and of William huggerey the Masters mate
and others of the shipps company sayd that if his horses were not
that night put on shoare hee would protest against the Master and
shipp, or words to that effect, whereupon hee saith that a mare
and three or fower horses or gueldings (which were all that then
remayned on board (undelivered) were that evening hoysted out
out of the shipp into a boate to bee carried on shoare, this deponent
helpeing to hoiste them into the boate, but how many of them
belonged to the sayd Chamberlaine, or whether they were carried hee
knoweth not, for that hee went not with them, but saith that Henry Turpin
the Masters Mate and some other of the shipps company went alonge
with them, And further hee cannot depose/

To the 3 hee saith that hee well knoweth that the arlate Viber in the sayd
shipps outward voyage was a while boatswaine of her, and was soe
made by the arlate John Tottey, and as boatswaine tooke charge
of such goods as were delivered on board the sayd shipp, And saith that
while the sayd shipp lay in the downes, the sayd Viber and one Abraham
doo[?er]en] his mate did in the night tyme loose the shipps boate from
her sterne and goe away therewith, and this deponent seeing them doe
soe, suspected that they had imbezelled some goods and called out to the
shipps Company and told them that Viber and his mate were running
away with the shipps boate, whereupon this deponent and some others
of the shipps company made after them with an other boate which
was at the sterne and after a league and a halfes rowing
or somewhat more, came up to them and tooke them as prisoners, and
this deponent and some others of the company that persued them went
into Vibers boate, and brought him
and his Mate back therein to the sayd Shipp and left some of the shipps
Company to come back in the other boate, which men tooke up
some taffaty hoods floateing upon the streame, which (as
the sayd Viber afterwards confessed) hee and his mate had throwne over board
when
