delivery of them at New England well knoweth that none of those pipes
whose chynes were cut or [?payerd] by order of the arlate Roger Yonge had
at the tyme of their sayd delivery any leakeage other than ordinary
but were delivered very well conditioned And hee saith hee this
deponent at the tyme of the ladeing of all the wines laden by the factors

rotten and wormeaten when they were laden, and this deponent and divers
others of the sayd shipps company found much fault therewith and
told the Marchant or factor who laded the same thereof, and hee
alsoe his Cooper, and refused a good while to put two or three of the
worst of them into hold untill such tyme as the Cooper sayd they
must goe as they were for there [?ware] noe casks to bee gott to change

were, and in deede very many of the Casks and hoppes were very badd
and rotten, soe that hee is well assured that such of the sayd pipes of wine
as were delivered at New England with extraordinary leakeage, say their
leakeage was occasioned meerely by the rottennesse and baddnesse of their
casks and hoopes and not through any default in stowage or by any
other neglect of the articulate Yong and Company. And further
hee cannot depose/
