within a short tyme after on board, the Master was offended with the foresayd
Nathaniell hutchinson that hee being his cheife mate had not caused
the Anchor to bee heaved a pick according to order, and some angrie
words passing betweene them the sayd hutchinson went downe betweene
decks and refused to doe his duty and the Master commanding
the Company to weight Anchor they refused to weigh anchor and
sayd they would have fresh victualls and fresh bread
first or to that effect, when

oversight thereof noe want of victualls or bread on board,
the victualls then on board and which they fayned fault with not being aboard tenn or twelve dayes

with were by the Merchants eaten in the sayd shipps Cabin
that night and noe fault found therewith by them, and the rest
of the beefe which they found fault with was by this deponent given
to certaine Greekes boatmen who were alsoe to attend the sayd

obstinacie and disobedience to the end that the sayd voyage to the
Argustoll might not bee frustrated did cause this deponent to pay
the sayd shipps Company two moneths pay or thereabouts which
they gaving receaved they and not before weighed anchor, and hee
saith that the plaintiffs in this cause were all active, and assisting
in the refuseing to weigh
Anchor the severall tymes aforesayd And further to this article
