and disturbance of the Watermen and other the Inhabitants of the sayd precinct and<br />
soe had done for some yeares next before that tyme and the sayd Jenkin Ellis<br />
was upon the Complaint of the sayd Inhabitants of the precinct of Saint Katherine con=<br />
vented before the then Judges of the same, and an order was made therein by<br />
the sayd Judges to the effect arlate, but for the more certaynetye of the sate<br />
and effect thereof hee referreth him selfe to the sayd order And further to this article hee<br />
cannot depose./
To the second and third articles hee saith that hee this deponent being as<br />
aforesayd an Inhabitant of Saint the sayd precinct of Saint Catherine and a waterman<br />
by trade and plyeing constantly at Saint Catherines stayres and other places neere<br />

frequently bring coles and other goods to places neere thereabouts and<br />
having a roade belonging to him to make his lighters fast to betweene Saint<br />
Catherines stayeres and the dock of Saint Catherine thereby knoweth that since the<br />
sayd order have and contrarrie to the same there have in the yeares<br />
1654 and 1655 and since divers vessells Billanders, and french vessells to the<br />
number of five or sixe a brest at a tyme layne abrest one of an other<br />
at or neere the wharfe of the sayd Jenkin Ellis betweene Saint Catherines stayeres<br />

wherries could passe betweene shoare and them to the great annoyment of<br />
watermen and lightermen who have occasion to land goods or fayres there<br />
about And hee this deponent hath within the sayd tyme by such their lyeing<br />
there soe many a brest and soe neere shoare bin hindered and put by from<br />
layeing his lighters at his owne roade, and soe likewise have other watermen<br />
plyeing also with wherries, have by such vessells their lyeing there soe neere shoare<br />
and soe many a brest bin forced to rowe with with their wherries against the strength<br />
and Current of the tyde before they could gett to shoare to land their fayres at<br />

And the sayd Ellis hath as hee beleeveth soe permitted and entertyned the sayd<br />
vessells to lye at and neere his wharfe out of a desyre to make gaine to himselfe<br />
thereby And the reason of such his beleefe is for that hee this deponent ˹having˺ half as afore<br />

thatighters at his owne roade<br />
