the winde hee saith the sayd Jeggles overshott his said Port about three or
fower leagues to the Southwards and not above And further hee cannot depose/

To the 4th and 5th hee saith that the next day (being as hee remebereth the 13th of the
sayd moneth) the sayd Jeggles soe soone as winde and weather would permit

such cases is accustomed) made two or three shott to give notice for a
Pylott to come aboard from shoare, and carry in the sayd shipp and [?then GUTTER]
lay soe neere shoare as hee durst for feare of danger (the winde
blowing stronger to shoare and against tyde) and having expected a pylott
and none comeing from shoare by reason the winde was contrary for them
to come out, and flood being spent, and it being like to prove most
stormie and tempesteous weather, the sayd Jeggles to prevent danger of her,
his sayd shipp being driven ashoare and for the better security of her,
her ladeing and her companyes lives, did stand off to sea, and that
night the weather proved very stormy and tempestious and the winde
encreased and blew very stronge to shoare, soe that this deponent in his
Judgement is verily persuaded that had not the sayd Jeggles stood off
to sea as he did, but continued all night before Porto Port the sayd
shipp and her ladeing and Company had bin in eminent danger of
being drive ashoare and perishing in the sea this hee deposeth upon
the grounds of knowledge as aforesayd And further cannot depose

To the 6th hee saith that the next day videlicet the fowerteenth of the sayd
moneth the weather continued very stormy and tempestuous, and
drove the shipp the Anne to southwards of Porto Port almost as
farr as the Burlings, and the winde being Northerly and noe hope
of gaineing Porto Port till the winde and weather altered, this deponent [?heard GUTTER]
Edmond Cowse the brother of the articulate James Cowse speake to
the sayd Jeggles upon the deck in the presence of this deponent and diverse other
of the Annes company, and advise him make to make to some
Port or other for better securitie till winde and weather would
permitt to goe for Porto Port, whereupon the sayd Jeggles went in
the sayd shipp to Lisbone, (it being the nearest and most convenient
Port and arrived there safely the next day after being the fifteenth of the sayd moneth with the sayd shipp and
ladeing And further hee cannot depose/

To the 7th and 8th hee sayth that the sayd shipp and ladeing being gott safe to Lisbone
the said Edmond Cowse did there cause to be taken ashoare the
