Transcription of the steeving geere are burst and other of the steeving geere are burst and other inconveniencies happen<br /> to the great retarding of the worke, so as he saith that ordinarily<br /> the number of men interrate in a vessell of the tonnage interro=<br /> gate may receyve on board and steeve about eight baggs a day<br /> one day with another, And otherwise he cannot depose. To the 15th he saith that on the say interrate there was not roome in the<br /> sayd shipp to have receyved the number of baggs interrate without<br /> steeving, for he saith there was not roome enough safely to have<br /> layd att that tyme one bagg without steeving. And otherwise<br /> he cannot depose. To the 16th he saith that when the ''Thomas Bonadventure'' ćame from Ciprus<br /> shee could not have ćarryed thirty tonnes of cotton woolls more than were<br /> laden in her, howbeit when she ćame to Zant she might and did<br /> receyve thirty tonnes of Currants; the reason of which difference is<br /> from the different qualities of the sayd merchandizes bećause Currants may<br /> safely and well be stowed any where in the hold and in the traveway of<br /> woolls, but the sayd traveway was not halfe long enough to receive such<br /> a quantity of woolls in regard of the great length of the sackes, and<br /> for that Currants are laden without steeving which wools cannot<br /> safely be, neyther ćan be steeved without a sufficient trave way. And<br /> otherwise saving that the sayd Currants were in butts he ćannot depose. Samuell Donn [SIGNATURE, RH SIDE] ****************************** 29th February 1655. ORIGINAL ANNOTATION USES "o", NOT "th" Examined upon the sayd Allegation '''6''' '''Gregorie Creyk''' of Marton in the County of Yorke merćhant,<br /> aged twenty four yeares or thereabouts a witnes produced<br /> sworne and examined deposed and saith as followeth videlicet. To the first and second Articles of the sayd allegation, This deponent saith, That the arlate<br /> shipp The ''Thomas Bonadventure'' arrived att Ciprus from Scanderon<br /> the voyage in question, after which her arrivall there<br /> were laden on board her a great quantity of Cotton woolls by the allegat<br /> Roger ffooke English Consull there, of the certayne knowledge<br /> of this deponent, who was then att Ciprus (as he had bene for about four<br /> yeares before) and lived and lodged in one and the same howse with the<br /> sayd Consull, and saw the sayd woolls weighted. but the number of the<br /> baggs hee remembreth not. And the greatest part of the sayd woolls<br /> were, as he then heard, for the freighters of the sayd shipp, and<br /> one smaller parcell was as he likewise heard, for one Mr Rich of London.<br /> And otherwise he cannot depose. To the 3. and 4th articles of the sayd allegation he saith that the sayd shipp the ''Thomas''<br /> ''Bonadventure'' was in this deponents Judgment of the burthen of about<br /> two hundred and seventy, or two hundred and eighty tonnes, and had<br /> about the number of men arlate in her the tyme aforesayd, which<br /> number of men, by what he hath seene, observed and heard, during his<br /> sayd four yeares abode att Ciprus, may receyve, and steeve upon a shipp<br /> of such tonnage, about eight or att most nyne baggs a day one day with another<br /> from the first beginning of her steeving till she have recyved her full<br /> Cargo, and not more, the reason whereof he hath observed to be partly the greatnes<br /> of the baggs and their bulke and weight, which renders them<br /> difficult to mannage and steeve, and partly the extraordinary labour that<br /> still encreases as the shipp fills, so as the greater quantity of goods a<br /> shipp hath in her, the more and greater is the labour and difficulty of steeving<br /> wools upon her. And soe much he hath well seene and observed as<br /> aforesayd. And othewise cannot depose/gt; aforesayd. And othewise cannot depose/  +
