upon the riseing of the floud cast crosse the River in the night<br />
of the same day shee was haled ashoare or the next day after and soe by reason<br />

To the 12th hee saith that the shipp the ''Golden Cock'' aforesayd was of this<br />
deponents knowledge being one of her company a single sheathed shipp and<br />
by reason of her long staye in trading to and fro in the Indies was eaten<br />
through her keele with wormes whereas if her Master and Company had<br />
returned out of the Indies with her to London at the end of eighteene<br />
moneths from the tyme of her setting out from the downes,<br />
of as the Master told this deponent as aforesayd hee would, hee noe<br />
way doubteth but the sayd shipp would have arrived in safety at London and<br />
not have bin necessitated to take up any other materialls or provisions<br />
than shee carried outwards and this hee the rather beleeveth for that hee knoweth<br />
shee continued tight and sound till the moneth of October one thousand<br />
sixe hundred fifty sixe And further hee cannot depose./
To the 13th hee saith hee being one of her Company and shipped on board<br />

ladeing for Pullam Bam, and saith that when shee had delivered her outward<br />
ladeing at Bantam her company were unwilling to goe thense to trade at<br />
Pullam Bam and other places in the Indies and were rather desyrous to have<br />
taken in lading at Bantam and to have returned therewith to London as the<br />
Master when hee shipped this deponent sayd hee intended to doe, and saith<br />
the winde served them well to have come away from thense for London and<br />
that other English shipps about that tyme or not<br />
longe after did depart thense for England and it was not by reason of contrary<br />
winde or fowle weather that the ''Golden Cock'' did not returne shortly after<br />
her first unladeing at Bantam but by reason her Master contrary to what hee<br />
had promised his Company traded up and downe to Pullam Mam and Jambee<br />
in the Indies and neglected his oportunitie of Comeing back for England and<br />
accomplishing his voyage home to London within eighteene moneths as hee told<br />
his company hee would, and might very easily have done by Gods assistance, if<br />
hee had pleased and endeavoured soe to doe, and the sayd shipp neede not to have<br />
layne shipp neede not to have<br />
