Transcription

when they were in the Ice as aforesayd and soe neere as
within 5 or 6 leagues of shoare as aforesayd, And further hee
cannot depose saving hee saith hee sawe all the sayd fower shipps
after their comming home and heard their companyes saye that they brought home every of them
as much oyle and finne as they could well carry and that they got
into Greene harbour and there made a good voyage./

To the 10th hee saith hee beleeveth it cost the sayd Batson Beane and
Goldene a considerable summe (but how much hee knoweth not) to fitt
and victuall the Owners Adventure and Greyhound for the voyage in question
and saith that by reason the sayd shipps gott not to harbour they
made a very insuccessefull voyage and brought home only as much
bloober as made nynteene tonne of oyle or therabouts and some smale
quantitie of finne but the worth of the sayd oyle and finne hee knoweth
not And further saving his foregoeing deposition hee cannot depose

To the 11th hee saith that hee beleeveth the sayd Batson Beane and
Golderne have suffered loss and dammage to a considerable value by
reason the voyage in question proved insuccessefull the shipps not
getting to harbour, and saith the sayd Gosling by the meanes aforesayd
did in hinder and dîscourage the shipps Company the tyme aforesayd,
and soe was a cause why the voyage proved insuccessefull and
further cannot depose for that hee beleeveth if the sayd shipps Owners
Adventure and Greyhound had not afterward bin parted from the
Company of the sayd other fower shipps after their getting all out
to sea againe by foggie and stormy weather they might have
made harbour as the sayd other shipps did./

To the 12th hee saith hee referreth himselfe to the Registry of this
Court and further cannot depose/

To the 13th hee saith the arlate Gosling Maundry and humfreys
are as hee beleeveth subiects of this Commonwealth and subect
to the authority of this Court and further hee cannot depose

To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true./

To the Interrogatories./ [CENTRE HEADING]

To the first hee saith that in his this deponents Judgment the sayd Mates
Gosling and Maundrie by their disobeying the sayd damerells Commands
and discourageing the Company of the Owners Adventure and
Greyhound by their unwillingnesse to worke further into the Ice
toward harbour and other their disobedient carriage aforesaid were a cause that the voyage in question proved soe
insuccessefull as it did, and the sayd damerell the master soe farr as
this deponent could and did observe, did doe his true endeavour to advance
the sayd voyage for the benefitt of his Imployers but was much hindered
therein by the refractory carriage of the sayd Gosling Maundry and humfreys
as is before declared And further hee cannot answere./
