Transcription ánd drew her athwart the chaine that was nánd drew her athwart the chaine that was neere her, and<br /> the ''lillies'' company were thereby forced to cut their cable to goe cleere<br /> of the ''Princes'' anchor, yet such was the negligence of the ''Princes'' master<br /> and company, that albeit the said Betts (after hee had fastened his<br /> shipp to the said chaine) went aboard to admonish the master and<br /> company of the ''Prince'' of their undue riding, and danger they put<br /> his shipp and loading in, besides the dammage they had alreadie donne<br /> her, they let her come againe fowle of the lillie, and then putting<br /> the ''lillie'' in greate danger, the ''lillies'' master and company fearing the chaines should give way, were forced to cut<br /> their cable againe, and hall her up to her former mooring, where<br /> the ''Prince'' comming that againe fowle of her, the master and company<br /> of the ''lillie'' were the third time forced to cut their cables, and that<br /> they were forced with her ashore whereby shee tore her false keele<br /> namely seaven foote thereof or thereabouts was torne off. Of which undue mooring<br /> of the ''Prince'' (being moored head and sterne in the river river (sic))<br /> hee and one of the ill behaviour therein of her master and company, hee saith that<br /> seamen and water men generally cried out, and called to and admonished<br /> them thereof. The premisses hee deposeth being one of the ''white''<br /> ''lillies'' company and then aboard her, and seeing the said premisses<br /> soe donne and happen. To the 6th hee saith that by reason of the said shipp the ''Princes''<br /> lying in or sich a dangerous and undue manner and comming fowle of<br /> the ''lilles'', the said mr Betts was necessitated to hire men to assist<br /> his company to remove and new moore his shipp from time to<br /> time to avoide greater dammages, and to worke hard him selfe<br /> therein, and paid them greate wages, and was at greate charges<br /> and expense there abouts, and the same and other dammage came and<br /> happened by reason of the said shipp the ''Prince'' her coming fowle<br /> of and endangering her as aforesaid. Which hee knoweth being p[resent]<br /> and seeing the said premisses soe happen. And otherwise hee cannot<br /> depose, not being able as hee saith to estimate the<br /> value of the said dammage. To the Interrogatories. [CENTRE HEADING] To the first hee saith hee was a foremast man of and in the said<br /> shipp ''lillie'' the time aforesaid, and was aboard her all the time<br /> when the dammage happened, and soe soe was the said Betts the master<br /> or for the most part thereof, and foure or five or soe more of his company,<br /> besides hired men some at one time and some at another, And<br /> otherwise hee referreth himselfe to his foregoeing deposition. To the second hee saith hee favoureth the truth and would give the<br /> victory according thereto, and beleeveth the said Betts and company to<br /> have a iust cause. To the third hee saith the ''Lillies'' masts, sailes and rigging are of<br /> a middle condition in respect of age, And otherwise hee cannot answer<br /> not knowing the valew of the shipp. To the 4th hee saith it is usuall for shipps to lie moored in the river<br /> of Thames neere each other, but never to lie in the middle of the River<br /> moored head and sterne as the ''Prince'' did, at which every one [XXXXX]<br /> [XXXXX]. And otherwise hee cannot answer, saving cables [?XXXX] sometimes<br /> thwart each other. To the fifth and 6 hee saith the bolt bolt spritt of the lillie which was fast<br /> comming against the ''Prince'', was cleared, and otherwise cannot answer them<br /> as aforesaid, saving the ''Prince'' was very unduely moored.
