To the 10th and 11th article hee saith that in the beginning of the Moneth
of August 1657 the weather had bin somewhat fowle and foggie
that certayne fish to the quantitie of five hundred kintalls or thereabouts
which the sayd Wood had bought and provided a shoare could not be shipped
untill a fayer day happened And saith that a fayer day happening in the sayd
moneth (the certayne day of the moneth it soe happened to be fayer he remem
breth not) the arlate Luke Woods and the arlate William Tizard (who was
Masters Mate of the Peace) called early in the morning for the Mariners of
the sayd shipp to goe a shoare with their boates to assiste in carrying
aboard and ladeing the sayd shipp with the sayd ffish And saith that thereupon the
sayd Grove the Master sent sixe men on shoare and not more to helpe to lade
the sayd ffish (whereas there were seaven and twenty men and boyes belonging
to the sayd shipp beside the Master, five and twenty whereof were under
pay of the sayd Woods and other the Owners above mentioned) and kept the
rest of the Mariners on board the sayd shipp and imployed them to pick Okum
and imployed this deponent being Carpenter to worke in the Okum

the sayd Grove sent to helpe him could and did lade aboard the sayd
shipp only one hundred and twenty kintalls of the sayd three hundred
Kintalls of ffish whereas if the sayd Wood had had more helpe
on shoare to assiste in ladeing the sayd ffish aboard and that the rest of the
shipps Company had not bin hindred from goeing a shoare to assiste
therein by the sayd Groves employing them to pick Okum the whole three
hundred kintalls of ffish might easily have bin that day laden and put
all aboard the sayd shipp And further hee cannot depose saving hee
saith that while the sayd Woods was soe ladeing of the sayd one hundred
and twenty kintalls of ffish the sayd Grove did with three or fowre
more of the shipps Company take the shipps boate and turne to and
froe to the winde warde in the harbour for his pleasure noe way
offereing any assistance in the ladeing the sayd ffish, but what ?discourse
then passed betweene the sayd Woods and Grove as hee sayled to and froe

To the 12th article hee saith that in the moneth of August 1657 (the certeyne
day hee remembreth not) the arlate Luke Wood having on shoare
sold a quantitie of salt came aboard the Peace to have it delivered
out of the said shipp and asked the Boatswaine for the sayd Grove the
Master and the Boatswaine made answere that hee was in his Cabbin
and the sayd Wood goeing into the Cabbin to desyre him (or by the sayd
Groves words afterwards appeared) to give order to his Company to [?deliver]
out the sayd boates ladeings of salt the sayd Grove came out of
his Cabbin and rann upon the deck of the sayd shipp Peace and swore
that he would sinke the boate that should come for any salt there and the
sayd Wood seeing the sayd Grove rage in such a furious manner did
in a milde manner desyre and entreate the sayed Grove not doe as hee
had
