of the River where shipps doe usually ride, and alsoe sawe fishermen
busie with two boates, one on one side and the other on the other side of
the shipp pulling up and cutting their weales, to whom this deponent
spake and asked them what they meant to cut their weeles in that manner
seeing the said shipps company were going to weigh their anchor, the tide
then serving, and that the said weales would have little or noe dammage./
But for any of the company of the wildeman hee saith they did not
meddle with the said weales to doe them any hurt, nor could they help
the dammage if any happened to the said weales, comming to anchor
in an usuall place where shipps bound for London, and loosing their
tide use to stop and expect the next tide; And saith the said company
and the pilote then averred that till that morning they knew nothing
of the said weales being there nor did this deponent see any buoy or
