*****************************
The 20th of ffebruary 1657:
Examined on the sayd allegation/
'''Rp. 2'''
'''Beniamin Denning''' of Ratcliff in the parish of Stepney<br />
and County of Middlesex Mariner aged 27 yeares or thereabouts a<br />
wittnesse sworne and examined saith and deposeth as followeth videlicet/
To the first and second articles of the sayd allegation hee saith that in the<br />
Moneth of November 1654 there came a hundred and odd pipes of wine (but<br />
the odd number hee remembreth not) which wines were sent all upon one day (and<br />
by the arlate Gowen Painter (as hee beleeveth) to be stowed aboard the shipp the<br />
''Industrie'' and there being sich a great quantitie sent togeather and a great many<br />
of them betweene decks and the upper deck as full alsoe as they could bee sett with<br />
Conveniencie of leaving roome to worke in the stoweing of them the arlate<br />
Sydrack Blake and company knowing that soe many being brought aboard<br />
together they lay in great danger of being staved if not speedily stowed did cause<br />
his Company to worke extreame hard day and night and heave out the ballast to<br />
make roome to stowe the sayd wines and by such their extraordinary paines<br />
and labour did not only heave out the sayd ballast but alsoe stowe all the sayd hundred and odd pipes of wine in a day<br />
and a nights tyme whereas the greatest quantitie of wine which is usually stowed<br />
aboard a shipp in one day is not above fiftie or sixty pipes, by meanes of<br />
which haste and speede that was made to stowe the sayd wines (soe many being<br />
brought aboard at one tyme) to prevent the danger of their being staved. hee beleeveth<br />
there was some losse of tonnage in the stoweing of them it not being possible<br />
with such speede to stowe them to the best advantage of tonnage of the sayd shipp<br />
And further to these articles hee cannot depose having lost his papers and noates<br />
concerning the sayd voyage
To the 2 article hee saith that hee this deponent being boatswaine of her the voyage in<br />
question and having gone a former voyage in her knoweth that the sayd shipp<br />
the ''Industrie'' was of the burthen of two hundred tonnes and upwards and<br />
did that former voyage carrie about two hundred tonnes of oyle and salt<br />
from Cadiz to the Canaries And saith that the voyage in question the sayd<br />
shipp the ''Industry'' beside the wines shee brought home for the sayd Page and<br />
others brought home the quantitie of at least two tonnes in presents or Regalias<br />
but whether without freight or noe hee knoweth not, nor knoweth hee experimentally the difference of<br />
the Mallega and Canary tonnage having never bin a voyage to Mallega but hath<br />
heard other seamen who have made voyage to both places saye that the Mallega tonnage<br />
is bigger than the Canarie tonnage, two butts at Mallega being reckoned to a tonne<br />
each but conteyning one hundred and twenty gallons, and the tonnage of the Canaries<br />
hee this deponent knoweth is only two pipes to a tonne each pipe conteyning aonly a hundred and<br />
twelve gallons at the most And hee verily beleeveth that in case the ''Industrie'' did bring<br />
home lesse tonnage then shee ought by agreement to have brought, the sayd hurryeing<br />
and disorderly putting the sayd hundred and odd pipes aboard in mannerayd hundred and odd pipes aboard in manner +
