did stand, and whether they wrought in after him, or out to sea, and being
told by them that went up into the shrowdes that the sayd shipps stood with their
heads to sea wards, and were workeing out to sea the sayd damerell went up into
the shrowdes him selfe to take a view what the sayd other shipps did and how the Ice lay which was to shoare and having
viewed it and then, sayd thus or the like in effect, I see the other shipps (meaneing the
fower shipps aforesayd) are workeing out to sea, therefore lett us worke out alsoe
and thereupon the sayd shipps Company by the Command of the
sayd Damerell
did worke the sayd shipp Owners Adventure out of the Ice to sea to followe the
other fower shipps, And saith that nothing spoken or done by the saydd Gosling
or Maundry or either of them were any cause why the shipp Owners Adventure
gott not then or at any time after to Port, they allwaies acting and doeing
their part and dutie soe farr as this deponent could observe to have gained a Port (if it could have bin gained)
but the extreamity of Ice
was such that it afforded not any oportunitie to the shipp Owners Adventure
and her Company to gett to any harbour, And alsoe saith that the sayd shipp
being gott cleere out of the Ice to sea the sayd damerell did openly upon
the shipps deck before this deponent and divers others of the sayd shipps company
saye thus of the like in effect, I am glad the shipp is out (meaning the
Owners Adventure) and would not have her in againe (meaning
where she was when hee commanded her to be wrought ot to sea.)
for five hundred pounds: And further to those articles hee cannot depose

To the 9th hee saith hee knoweth the arlate Pybus Welch Child and Goulding
and saith they are all accompted able sea men, and men that have used
the Greeneland trade of fishing for many yeares, and accompted to bee well
experienced therein, And saith hee hath heard the sayd Pybus and Childe
since their returne to London from the voyage in question saye, that they
marvailed that the sayd damerell would worke his shipp soe farr into
the Ice as hee did, being there was (in their judgment) noe probability to
gett to harbour, And hee this deponent well knoweth that the sayd Pybus
his shipp by her goeing into the Ice at the same tyme and place (though not
soe farr as the Owners Adventure did) was soe much damnified and hurt
thereby and by breaking through the Ice againe to sea, that when shee was
gott cleere to Sea she was ready to sinke by reason of a hole the Ice
had staved in her bowe, at which shee tooke five or sixe feete water in
hold, and her company were ready to forsake her had not shee had
the helpe of the Companyes of the sayd Golding Welch and Child their
shipps, and of the Company of the Owners Adventure to helpe to
pumpe her and stopp her leake, And saith that at such tyme as the Owners
Adventure did begin to worke out of the Ice toward sea, Bell Point did
then beare East south East of the sayd shipp and was (in this deponents Judgment
about eight of tenn leagures distant from her, and hee this deponent did
observe that the Ice did beate and drive soe against the Rudder of the Owners Ad=
venture as shee was while shee laye fast to the Ice before shee begann
to worke out againe, that hee much feared it would have staved her
Rudder And further to this article hee cannot depose/
