of the great hazard and danger thereof and … of the great hazard and danger thereof and that all shipps though belonging<br />
to that place doe use the assistance of some Pylott resideing there or neere<br />
thereabouts to goe into the sayd harbour And this is a thing well knowne to<br />
all sea men that have occasion to goe to the sayd Port And further<br />
hee cannot depose./
To the 3 article of the sayd allegation that upon or about the twelfth<br />
of November 1654 and about two or three of the Clock in the morning<br />
(it then being very darke by reason the moone was then sett) the sayd daniell<br />
Jeggles came with his shipp the ''Anne'' whereof he was Master neere to<br />
Porto Port articulate at which tyme hee well remembereth there did blow<br />
a very scant Easterly gale of wynde And saith that by reason of the scantnesse<br />
of the winde and darkenesse of the morning the sayd daniell Jeggles and his<br />
Company did overshoote the sayd port of Porto Port about three or fower<br />
leagues and not above, and were to the Southwards of it about three or fower<br />
leagues betwixt it and a place called Avero the premisses hee deposeth<br />
of his owne knowledge being one of the sayd shipps Company and<br />
then upon the watch when the Port was soe overshott by reason of the<br />
darkenesse of the morning and scantenesse of the winde as aforesayd And further<br />
to this article hee cannot depose
To the 4th 5th 6th and 7th articles of the sayd allegation hee saith and deposeth<br />
that the next day after (being as hee remembereth the 13 of the sayd moneth) the<br />
sayd Jeggles came againe with his sayd shipp before Porto Port<br />
and as is usuall for shipps in such case to doe shott off severall<br />
gunnes to give notice for a pylott to come aboard to carrie in the<br />
sayd shipp, but none came from shoare, though the sayd Jeggles stayed in<br />
expectation thereof severall houres and the flood being spent, and<br />
night approaching and the winde beginning to be high, and it being likely<br />
to prove fowle weather, the sayd Jeggles to prevent danger of his shipp being driven<br />
on ground did for the more securitie of her and her ladeing and her companys<br />
lives carry her off to sea further from shoare And the same night it proved<br />
very stormie weather and the winde blew very strongly toward shoare soe<br />
that in this deponents judgement hee verily beleeveth and is perswaded in<br />
his conscience had the sayd shipp continued all night before Porto Port and<br />
not made out to sea as shee did, shee would by the violence of the<br />
winde have bin driven on shoare and bin in great danger of perishing<br />
in the sea both shee and her ladeing and her Company, and soe much was<br />
manifest and apparent to all the sea men then on board her and hee saith<br />
that the next day (being the fourteenth of the sayd moneth) the winde blew<br />
Northerly and the weather continued very stormie and tempestious<br />
soe that unlesse the winde and weather had altered there was in this deponents<br />
Judgement and the Judgement of the rest of the seamen aboard noe hope to gaine<br />
Porto Port, and therupon the sayd Jeggles did by order of the articulate<br />
James Cowse his brother Edmond Cowse (as James Mansfeild) the Masters<br />
Mate and others of the sayd shipps Company who affirmed they heard the<br />
sayd Edmond Cowse give such order to the sayd Jeggles told this deponent<br />
and as this deponent beleeveth alsoe for that hee heard the sayd Edmond Page<br />
alsoe upon the open deck before this deponent and others of the shipps company saye)<br />
it was better to make to some Port then continue at sea the weather being soe<br />
stormie the weather being soe<br />
