ffrost and Trigg raised a mutiny in the sayd shipp wherein the arlate Abraham the Cooke and all the rest of
the mariners thereof by their instigation and perswasion (except this
deponent and Thomas Paramore the Masters mate) conspired against the Master
and contrary to the Masters Command and against his will there brought
the sayd shipp to an Anchor and kept her to an Anchor a day and a halfe
and one night and refused to sayle any further with the sayd shipp and
in order thereto prepared their cloathes in a readinesse to goe ashoare
and threatned the Master to goe ashoare and desert the shipp unlesse the sayd
Master would give them bond to pay them their wages then due within
tenn or eleven dayes after the arrivall of the sayd shipp at the Barbados
which the sayd Master to appease the sayd mutinye and keepe them from
deserting the sayd shipp before shee came to her designed port in Guinney

they came to they Barbadas the more their importunitie and
clamour upon the master increased and soe did his disquiet
by meanes thereof, Insomuch that comming in view of the
Land of Barbadas hee by their frequent tormenting him became
wholly distracted, and unserviceable and unfit to act and
doe according to his place and dutie in the busineses of the
said shipp, and saith the said mariners would not suffer the
