combination with the Master and Company of the ''Alexander'': And hee<br />

at the doore of his Cabbin part of his body within the Cabbin and part<br />
without and the sayd Peter Hanse was then a sleepe in his Cabbin by<br />
reason of his sayd distemper, And such their being then distempered<br />
and asleepe was not only observed and taken notice of by this deponent<br />
