Smith}<br /> Exámined upon an allegation on behalfe of<br /> the said Cowse given in the 16th instant. '''Rp. .j.''' '''Giles Baily''' of the parish of Saint Mary Magdalen<br /> Bermondsea Mariner, aged 30 yeeres or<br /> thereabouts sworne and exámined. To the fourth article of the said allegation hee saith and deposeth that<br /> hee well knoweth the arlate James Reade and Morgan Jonas, and<br /> saith the said Morgan Jone's was shipped for and went Master of the shipp<br /> the ''Golden ffortune'' the voyage allegate, and tooke the governement of<br /> the said shipp upon him for the said voyage, of this deponents sight and<br /> knowledge, this deponent being second mate unto him in<br /> the same. And saith that the said shipp the said voyage, from the time<br /> of her issuing or going out of the Gararchicho in the Iland of Teneriff, to<br /> the time of her comming to the an anchor in the Roade of Palma spent<br /> eight dayes space or thereabouts, and went once about the said Iland<br /> of Palma before shee could finde the said roade, And otherwise hee<br /> cannot depose, saving what followeth. To the fifth article hee saith and deposeth that after the dispatch of the said<br /> shipp and goods aboard her from the said Iland of Palma, the said<br /> Morgan Jonas was by order of the producents Edmund and James Cowse<br /> or their agents (as this deponent was informed) to saile the said shipp<br /> directly to the Iland of Barbada's, but through the unskilfulnes or carelessnes<br /> of the said Jone's the said Iland of Barbado's was overshott by the said<br /> shipp, soe much, that shee was nine dayes or thereabouts more then shee<br /> needed to have bin in gaining and seaking her port in the said Iland<br /> which hee knoweth being his second mate, and going the said voyage in the<br /> said shipp, and as touching the unskilfulnes of the said Jonas, hee saith<br /> hee cannot otherwise depose thereof, than that the observation made from<br /> time to time by the said Jonas of the sun at Noone, was thirtie minutes<br /> or halfe a degree to the Southward of the observation of this deponent and<br /> of William Trutter the cheife mate, who often compared his observation with<br /> this deponents and they still agreed, and found the said Master to be soe much<br /> in an errour, and though they told him thereof, yet still hee persisted<br /> to navigate the shipp according to his owne observation, which being<br /> soe erroneous, this deponent conceiveth that that was the cause of<br /> such his missing his ports and places sought for, and to be longer<br /> (by that meanes) in finding them than otherwise hee needed. To the 6th hee saith that there were laded aboard the said shipp in<br /> this port before her proceeding on the said voyage, namely in or about<br /> the moneth of January 1656 by the said producents or their order<br /> (amongst other goods) foure bales of goods, but the contents hee<br /> knoweth not, but they were said to be a bale of fustian and three of<br /> Linnen, to be transported to the Canaries in the said shipp, and saith<br /> that the said foure bales of goods were through the carelessnes or ignorance<br /> of the said Jonas removed from the place for ward on before the maine<br /> hatchesrd on before the maine<br /> hatches  +
