voyage in question could not but bee able to testifie touching the passages therein<br />
happening and to the rest Negatively/
To the 2 hee saith the sayd Jeggles did over shoote the Port of Oporto as<br />
is before deposed and when it was cleere day seeing that hee had passed<br />
the same did presently make up towards it againe soe fast as the weather<br />
would permitt and then having some tyme expected a pylott and none<br />
coming, and night and ill weather approaching, hee put out to sea, and<br />
was driven by stresse of weather Southwards as farr as the Burlings<br />
Interrogate, and saith Lisbone was the neerest place where a Pylott was<br />
to bee had after the sayd shipp was driven soe farr southward as the<br />
Burlings, And further saving his foregoeing deposition hee cannot<br />
answere to this Interrogatorie otherwise than negatively/
To the 3 hee saith hee cannot answere otherwise than negatively saving hee saith hee remembreth<br />
that after the ''Anne'' was gotten safe into Oport hee sawe there a<br />
smale Pinke belonging to Plymouth (her name hee knoweth<br />
not) whereof a dutch man was (whose name alsoe hee knoweth not) was<br />
Master, which Pinke was laden with wine and salt, and other goods such<br />
as the ''Anne'' was laden with, and bound alsoe to the Barbadoes,<br />
but saith hee well knoweth shee went thither in Company of the ''Anne''<br />
and arrived not there before her, and therefore could not by any such<br />
meanes as is Interrogate glutt the market there./
To 4th hee saith that hee well remembreth being present and giving<br />
the sayd Edmund Cowse a Cupp to take a taste thereof that the sayd shipp<br />
''Anne'' being come from Barbados to New England the Cooper gave<br />
the sayd Cowse a taste of every of the butts there landed and among the<br />
rest one of them was changed and become somewhat sower and not fitt for<br />
sale whereupon the sayd Cowse having tasted it speaking to the Company<br />
of the shipp then present which was this deponent and the Cooper and some others<br />
sayd you may keepe it on board and make beveridge of it for it is<br />
not fitt to goe on shoare whereupon the Cooper without the knowledge<br />
of Jeggles made beveridge of the greatest part thereof and the<br />
sayd Jeggles afterwards hearing of it was displeased that they had<br />
soe done and sayd if hee had knowne of it hee could have sold<br />
it, and bought them beere with it, which would have bin better, and<br />
did in his anger strike out the head of the vessell and spill that which<br />
was left undrunke in beveridge, which was a thing of little or<br />
noe value and as hee beleeveth noe preiudice to the sayd Cowse<br />
And further to this Interrogatorie hee cannot answere,/

hundred tonnes and upwards in this deponents Judgment, and saith<br />
hee knoweth shee came from Virginia to England, but with about a third<br />
