and saith the sayd shipp at Plymouth tooke in a quantitie of goods
videlicet about fower or five and twenty tonne of tinne about twelve tonne of
trayne oyle and better and about three tonne of Capers, and Indico sugars
and sider (sic) and other goods, amounting in all to about seaventy
tonne to be brought to London and saith that part of the sayd Tinne in
the quantitie of about fifteene tonne was laden for Account of the
Interrogant Thomas Greggs And for whose Accompt the rest of the sayd
shipps ladeing was hee knoweth not And further to this Interrogatorie hee cannot

Isaack who were passengers (whereof this deponents daughter was
one) could not gett out of the Isaack and by that meanes were (as hee beleeveth) drowned,
this hee deposeth of his owne sight and knowledge being on eof the
Isaacks company and aboard when the premisses were soe done./

To the 4th Interrogatorie hee saith the Saint Jacob at such tyme as shee came
