The second day of March 1654/ [CENTRE HEADING]

A busines of proofe of certayne stormes}
which the vessell the Mary and Anne}
did meete in her late passage from}
Mallega to this Port of London in}
September 1654 promoted by John}
Greene and Company Master and}
Owners of the sayd shipp against}
the ffreighters: Suckley}

Examined upon an allegation on the behalfe of
John Greene./

Thomas Gerling of Wapping in the parish of
Stepney and County of Middlesex Mariner Masters
Mate of the sayd vessell the Mary and Anne aged
twenty fower yeares or thereabouts a witnes sworne
and examined saith and deposeth as followeth videlicet/

To the first and second articles of the sayd allegation hee saith and deposeth
that the arlate shipp the Mary and Anne in the moneths of November and
december 1654 arlate was a firme stronge and tight shipp and very fitt to carry
any Merchants goods and then was and laye at the Port of Mallega in Spaine where
in the sayd moneths the sayd shipp tooke in divers goods and Merchandizes to
be thence transported to London and sett sayle therewith from Mallega aforesayd
bound for London in the sayd moneth of december, and that in her course thitherward
and about the 22th of the sayd moneth the sayd shipp being then about thirty leagues
from the Southward Cape arlate shee met with a very violent storme which
continued for above twenty fower howers togeather and that with such violence
that the sayd shipp could beare noe sayle but her company were forced to take
in all her sayles notwithstanding which the sayd storme with the violence thereof caused
the sayd shipp tpo drive alonge upon her side in the sea whereby shee receaved in
very much water which could not bee avoided, and saith had the sayd shipps company
not taken in all their sayles as aforesayd the sayd shipp and her company had in all
probability perished in the sea The premisses hee deposeth of his owne certayne sight
and knowledge being then Masters Mate of and aboard the sayd shipp the sayd voyage And
further to those articles hee cannot depose./

To the third and 4th hee saith that after the premisses videlicet about the 29th day of the sayd moneth
of december 1654 the sayd shipp being then thwart [?Cadige]
there arose an other violent storme which continued for the space of about eight
howers with such violence that the sayd shipp could beare noe sayle and was
in great danger to perish in the sea, and tooke in very much water, but after a while
the winde came contrarie to that point it blew upon in the violence of the storme
by which meanes the arlate Captaine Greene (the Master of the sayd shipp), and
her company put into Cadiz and there stayed and repayred and stopped such leakes
and other damage as the shipp had susteyned by the violence of the sayd storme, and
the same leakes being stopped and the sayd shipp made tight and staunch the
said Captaie Greene and Company sett sayle therewith from Cadiz towards
England about the 12th of January 1654, asnd being at sea the sayd shipp
in the English Chabnnell and about the sixth day of ffebruary last met with
another very violent storme which soe beate upon the sayd shipp that shee
tooke in thereby much water the waves often tymes running cleere over her
soe that if any damage bee happened to any of the sayd shipps ladeing the same
was occasioned by the violence of that and other stormes which the sayd shipp
met with all, and not through any defect of the sayd shipp, for hee this deponent
well observed that before the stormes happened the sayd shipp was very tight
and firme and after they were past continued soe tight as that
