Examined on the sayd article/
'''Rp. 7'''
'''Thomas Lovell''' of the precinct of Saint Katherine neere the Tower<br />
of London Waterman aged fifty three yeares or thereabouts a<br />
wittnesse sworne and examined saith and deposeth as followeth videlicet./
To the first article hee saith that about fower yeares since (the tyme more certainly<br />
hee doth not remember) there was a petition preferred by the Inhabitants of the precinct<br />
of Saint Katherines (to which petition as this deponent remembreth hee amongst others of<br />
the Inhabitants of the sayd precinct sett his hand (against the arlate Jenkin<br />
Ellis to the effect arlate to the then Judges of this Court who upon debateing<br />
the busines in presence of the sayd Ellis did make an order therein to the effect<br />
arlate and monished the sayd Ellis to yeild obedience thereto but for certainty<br />
as touching the date and effect of the sayd order hee refereth him selfe to the sayd<br />
Registry of this Court and further to this article hee cannot depose/
To the 2 and 3 articles hee saith that hee this deponent hath bin a waterman<br />
and an Inhabitant of the precinct of Saint Katherine for those thirty yeares last past<br />
and upwards and hath during that tyme usually plyed with his wherry at<br />
Saint Catherines stayres and other places neere thereabouts and knoweth that the arlate<br />
Jenkin Ellis since the foresayd order made and contrary to the same hath for<br />
his owne private gaine enterteyned and received divers tymes severall<br />
vessells dutch ffrench and other vessells to the number of five or sixe at a tyme at<br />
the least and some tymes eight or tenn at a tyme to lye a brest at one and the<br />
same tyme at and neere his wharfe betweene Saint Catherines stayres and<br />
Saint Catherines dock whose companyes have all of them usually had made their roade<br />
and passage from on board their vessells to shoare and from shoare to their<br />
vessells through the sayd Ellis his howse and did usually lye soe neere<br />
shoare that neither lighter nor wherry could passe betweene shoare and them<br />
to the great annoyance of the neighbours living neere who habe had some<br />
of them their wash houses and other places of convenience belonging to them<br />
and the pyles of their wharfes broken downe by the sayd vessells lyeing soe<br />
neere them and have bin alsoe thereby debarred of their iust liberty of shipping<br />
off or takeing in any goods on their wharfes And the watermen who plye at<br />
Saint Catherines Stayres and places neere thereto have by such their soe lyeing bin<br />
very much damnified by being hindered from their roades where they<br />
used to laye their boates for safety and have sometymes had their boates splitt<br />
and sunke by the sayd vessells And this deponent having had his boate sunke<br />
by the sayd vessells did complayne to the Companyes of the sayd vessells how<br />
much hee and others were damnified by their lyeing there soe many a brest<br />
and soe neere shoare and the Companyes of the sayd vessells have answered<br />
this deponent and others who were in like manner damnified by them and sayd that they<br />
they would lye there for they paid halfe a Crowne a weeke a vessell for<br />
their lyeing there to Jenkin Ellis the shoemaker (meaning Jenkin Ellis<br />
arlate) and therefore they would lye there or to that effect And saith that by such<br />
their lyeing soe many a brest there and soe close to shoare the watermen not being<br />
able to passe betwixt shoare and them and are frequently forced to rowe out<br />
into the hart and strength of the tyde in the River of Thames with their wherries<br />
and beate before hee could come to shoare to land their fayres or such goods as<br />
theyr fayres or such goods as<br />
