Transcription

To the 10th hee saith that the sayd fower shipps and alsoe the Owners Adventure
and Pinke Greyhound being all gott cleere of the Ice to Sea, were afterwards
parted by storme and foggy weather, soe that the Owners Adventure and Greyhound left
the Company of the other fower shipps, and having lost their Company did consort
with some dutch shipps and the sayd Damerell did goe aboard them and finding noe fitt opportunity
to gaine any harbour was forced to keepe sea whereby some of the Owners
Adventure for want of refreshment on shore fell sick of the scurvie, and
some of the Greyhounds Company dyed thereof And further
to this article hee cannot depose/

To the 11th hee saith it was upon the eighteenth or nynteenth of June last
that the Owners Adventure did worke out of the Ice as aforesayd, And saith
that in his this deponents Judgment after the sayd shipp Owners Adventures
getting soe out of the Ice, there were severall better oportunities and likelyhoods
of gaineing harbour than when the sayd shipp began to worke out of the
Ice, and that the sayd Damerell did not attempte after such his workeing out,
to worke into the Ice againe at any place, but kept at Sea, but saith hee knoweth
not of any perswasion used by the sayd Maundry or Gosling or any of the
sayd shipps Company to the sayd damerell to endeavour for any harbour
after hee came out of thee Ice as aforesayd, And alsoe saith that hee knoweth
of noe difference which happened betwixt the sayd damerell and Gosling or
Maundry save the difference and ill language by him this deponent before
mentioned, which difference did (in this deponents Judgment) arise by the
sayd damerells wilfullnesse and rashnesse in desyring and Commanding
his shipps company to worke the sayd shipp further into the Ice than
other shipps would and did adventure, and by his provoaking the sayd
Gosling with ill language as aforesayd, And hee verily beleeveth that
nothing spoken or done by the sayd Gosling Maundrey or any
other of the sayd shipps Company was preiudiciall or any cause of
the overthrowe of the voyage arlate, but the same was lost by reason
there was noe probable oportunitie offered for the sayd shipp to gett into
harbour after shee came out of the Ice as aforesayd, (at least none
soe probable as that the sayd damerell lost at the sayd shipps first
coming within three or fower leagues of Bell Pointe) by his
not then putting into the Ice but goeing aboard his owne shipp Owners
Adventure till shee was come back to sea ward about tenn leagues
further from Bell Point) And further to this article hee cannot depose
for that the Owners Adventure and Greyhound looseing the Company
of the fower London shipps arlate at Sea in foggie and stormie weather
never proceeded their Company againe soe that hee knoweth not of his
owne knowledge, nor whether they did make voyage and kill whales in or neere harbour,
but saith hee hath heard some of every of the sayd shipps Companyes after
their
