they fell in a tumultous furious manner aboard, and fell to pulling
cutting and hacking and wholly plundered tooke and carried away
away all the said shipps lading and goods, saving three or foure boates
lading oof the goods and sailes. And that the said people dispossessed

boates as aforesaid) and cut downe all the masts and rigging and
carried the same away alsoe, all which hee knoweth being present and
seeing the same, and seeing the master and company doe their best to
prevent the said spoile, and violence.

soe to fall on and commit the said spoile and outrage, and that if
