To Barbados and thence to New England (and touched at Mevis and
Saint Christophers by the way, and delivered, and tooke in goods there)
and from New England back to Barbados againe (at all which
places hee traded) and thence to Virginia and saith by order of the
sayd Edmund Cowse and saith that with sayd shipps passage
betwixt Barbadoes and Virginia, shee mett with very stormy
and tempestious weather which soe shattered and bruised her hull
and broke her forecastle and did her other dammage in her hull and
and to sayles cordage tackle and furniture ˹that it˺ and caused her ˹to˺ loose her
foremast foretop sayle, sayles yardes and all her rigging except
her foreyard and foresayle, which were alsoe much damnified, yet

endeavour could get only one hundred fifty eight hogsheads of tobaccoe
upon freight for severall planters of Virginia and fower hogsheads
of tobaccoe or thereabouts for Accompt of the sayd Edmund Cowse and
