Transcription

they (meaning the sayd shipps) are workeing out of the Ice to goe to Sea
and soe will wee also, and thereupon Commanded the sayd shipps company to
goe into their boats and work the sayd shipps The Owners Adventure and Greyhound out of the Ice
to sea to followe the sayd other shipps which they did accordingly and saith
that noe words or actions of the arlate Manndery or Goslin (soe farr
as this deponent could or did observe) were any cause why the sayd
shipps Owners Adventure and Greyhound was not then or at any tyme after put into port
but the same in this deponents Judgement was occasioned only by the extremity
of the Ice and sea and by reason the shipp was gone too farr to the
Northwards of the harbour of Bell Sounds and the winde contrary
and saith that the sayd shipp being by order and Command of the
sayd Dammerell wrought out of the ice to sea the sayd Dammerell
when she was gott clear of the ice and at sea standing by his owne
Cabbin did in the hearing of this deponent sayd he was glad the sayd
shipp was gotten out and that hee would not bee in the Ice with her
again for five hundred pounds or hee spake words to the same effect.
The premisses hee deposeth of his own sight and knowledge being on
board the sayd shipp as one of her Company and assisting in performance
of the things predeposed according to the sayd Damerells commands. And
further hee cannot to these articles depose.

To the 9th hee saith he well knoweth the arlate Pybus Welch Child
and Golding and hath so knowne them for these five years last or
thereabouts during which tyme they have used the ffishing trade for Greenelands
as master of shipps and one accoumpted men very well experiensed therein And saith that
of his this deponents sight the sayd Pibus his shipp after her getting
out of the Ice was in great danger of sinkeing in so much that his Company
were about to forsake the shipp if they had not bin assisted by the helpe of
this deponent and the sayd Gosling and others of the Adventures Company
who after they were gotten alsoe out of the Ice seeing her in distresse
and staying for helpe went to her assistance, and saith the occasion
of the sayd Pybus his shipps danger was by reason that by her goeing
into the Ice (though she went not soe farr as the Adventure did) the Ice
had broke a hole into her Bowe, at which she receaved soe much
water that had not the sayd hole bin stopped by the helpe of her owne Carpenter
and the Carpenters mate of the Adventure and the company of the Adventure
and of the sayd Welches Childs and Goldings shipp who helped to pumpe her
and cleere her of water shee had without doubt sunck and foundered in the
sea And saith that in this deponents Judgment it was farr greater
danger to her for any of the sayd shipps to have wrought on through the Ice
to gaine shoare than to worke out again to sea by reason that when the sayd
shipps endeavoured to return back they who were neerest to shoare
were at least fowerteene leagues or rather more from shoare when
they
