Thirty-eight year old Alexander Fowler deposed on May 28 1658 in the High Court of Admiralty.[1] He was examined on an allegation on behalf of Mr Bence in the case of "Cawswell and Company against Bence".
Fowler stated that he had been employed as a cooper by Mr Bence to view fifteen chests of sugar brought home on the Oporto Merchant. Fowler had his servant John Turfley open one chest of sugar on board the ship, then helped open the rest himself ashore, after they had been delivered to Chesters Key.[2]
