To the 9th Interrogatorie hee saith that though a shipp bee staunch and strong before
a storme yet it doth not necessarily followe that therefore shee muts receave noe
harme above water then under water for hee hath observed that oft tymes a
shipp is ina strome soe strayned in her seames that shee may and doth
receave more harme under water then above./

To teh 10th Interrogatorie hee saith hee beleeveth that before the storme it was nnecessary
and usuall to pumpe the shipp three howers in a day or thereabouts and after
the storme shee stood neede to be pumped five howers in a day or thereabouts
and was pumped soe long at least every day till shee came into the river of
Thames, And further hee cannot answeeere./

To the last hee cannot answere knowing nothing thereof./
