Robert Land of Ratcliff in the parish of Stepney and
County of Middlesex Mariner aged 45 yeares or thereabouts
a wittnesse sworne and examined saith and deposeth as
followeth videlicet.

To the first article of the sayd allegation hee saith hee hath bin a Mariner
for these thirty yeares last past and hath had the Command of shipps as Master
of them for these eighteene yeares last and more and hath in that tyme
made many voyages from this Port of London to Sain Lucar Cales
Mallega Carthagena and Allecant in Spaine
and Lisbone in Portugall, and to Genoa and Leghorne, Venice, Zant
and Zephanie and most ports in Turkey which places lye some within

frequent and customary for Masters of shipps who goe to those places to have an allowance
of the laders of a royall plate (which is in English money sixe pence
half penny and better) upon every duckett freight for all strangers goods and
for English goods transported to Spaine three Royalls per bayle
And for goods transported from any of the sayd places in Spaine to this Port of

primage and Average is to encourage Masters and Companyes to bee
carefull in carrying the goods aboard and well stowing of them and alsoe
to oblige them to pay damage if any happen to their ladeing by their
default in ill stowage or the like And further to this article hee cannot depose/
