tacking about with intent to get windewards of the ffrench shipp the Peace
having her two topp sayles alofte and being but newly tackt about shee
did not feele her helme and soe the sayd Grove the Master caused her fore topsayle to be
lowered that the shipp might come to, and the shipp Peace drawing nigh
to the ffrench shipp and not getting the winde of her this deponent and Mr
Tizard (both Mates) told the sayd Grove that they feared they should be
aboard of the ffrench shipp, hee the sayd Grove having caused the fore
topp sayle to be lowered, whereto the sayd Grove answered and sayd
noe, I hope not, and ordered the foretopsaile to be hoisted againe
that soe the Peace might beare up under the ffrench shipps Sterne, but
the Peace was then gotten soe neere the ffrench shipp that there was not
roome for the Peace to beare up under her sterne, by which ??endeavour
she came fowle of the sayd ffrench shipp in manner as aforesayd

To the 20th article hee saith that the arlate Thomas Grove was from
Newfound land bound directly for the Barbados, as by the bill
of ladeing doth and may appeare and saith that hee hath heard the arlate
Robert Grove one of the Mates of the Peace who had formerly bin at the
Barbados, saye that hee did advise the Master Thomas Grove to keepe
a more Easterly course than hee did and that the sayd Thomas thereupon
answered him the sayd Robert Grove and sayd hee should not watch him to
finde the Barbados for he could tell well enough here to finde it
though hee had not bin there yet, and soe the sayd Thomas
Grove holding on his course did not of this deponents sight and knowledge come with his shipp into the
due latitude for the Barbados but in steade of gaining the Barbados
made the Islands of Saint Lusea and upon the eighth day of
November 1657 arrived with the Pease at Nevis And further to
this arle hee cannot depose

To the 21th article hee saith that in the moneth of November 1657 (the
tyme now certainely hee doth not now call to mynde) the arlate Luke
Woods Thomas Grove and this deponent and Robert Groves and William Tizard
Mates Edward Gold Chirugion of the Peace being at supper togeather
aboard the sayd shipp the sayd Thomas Grove the Master did give
the sayd Woods very reproachfull Speeches and called him old
Roague Pedler Pimpe and Chi?uch and spreading his hands
abroad swore that if hee layd them upon him the sayd Woods hee
would teare him in peeces and sayd alsoe that if the sayd Woods
was not an olde Roague hee would drubb him that hee should not be
able to help him selfe And further to this article hee cannot depose
for that hee this deponent rose from supper and was gone off of the deck before
the sayd Grove the Master and Woods came out of the round house upon
the deck and soe heard not what passed betweene them upon the deck.
