for London, and that hee this deponent was the said voyage one
of her company, namely Pilot of her, and thereby knoweth the [?premisses GUTTER]
To the second Interrogatorie hee saith and deposeth that the said
shipp in the course aforesaid from Nantes for Narmoutier, came
to an anchor in the Roade of Narmoutier about a Cannon shott
from the shore, in a place where shipps doe frequently use to
anchor, before they goe nearer the shore, which hee knoweth being
a pilote and using those coasts and voyages.
To the third and fourth Interrogatories hee saith and deposeth
that it soe happened that at the time of the said shipps soe comming
to an anchor, there was a Biskayer or some other Spanish man
of warr, anchored in the said roade, whereupon his contest
Eleazar le Merchant the yonger who was master of and went merchant in the
said shipp ffortune, went ashore to speake with the Merchant
that was to lade there the rest of her lading, and that
within the space of an houre after such his going ashore, there came
a pilot from shoare on board the said shipp, as sent

To the fifth Interrogatorie hee saith and deposeth that the weather

more and more, by meanes whereof the said shipp (the
sea falling away and tide abating) bilged upon the said rocks
and sanck and became full of water in the
hould through leak{i}nes, soe that shee could not be set out
againe to sea without first amending and repairing of her. And
otherwise hee cannot depose saving hee sawe the premisses.
To the sixth Interrogatorie hee saith and deposeth that the said shipp
by reason of the said bilging remained under water
by the space of seaven dayes or thereabouts, before shee was
or could be gotten up againe, and saith then there were somtimes [XX GUTTER]
and somtimes three or foure boates and 20 or 25 men or thereabouts
used and imployed all or the most part of the space about pumping
out the water and weighing up the said shipp, and that the [?Master GUTTER]
