oftentimes within [?XXXXXXX] ten dayes after the ships first arrivall in the [?Roade] and after earnestly desired the said

Peerehead to the end shee might be the sooner Laden and with lesse hazard
and told him if hee would come up with his said ship beere
to the Peere head, hee would fully lade his ship, before hee
would put any Lading onboard the ffortune, but
notwithstanding hee refused to come up any neerer, although
of this Deponents Knowledge hee might have come up halfe
a mile neere to the Peere head then hee did, and there hee
might have rode in as good ground and as Deepe water, and
in as much safety as hee did in the place
where hee rode as this Deponent verily beleeveth, And this
Deponent and alsoe the said Deazsly were Informed by severall
of the Inhabitants of Keck that ships of 100: 120 and 130 Lasts

head, and never any ships lay out soe farr to receive in their Lading as the ffalcon
did, or to that effect, And saith that the said Peere head is the
ordinary ad usuall place from whence goods are sent onboard
ships lying in the said Rode, and this Deponent never knew
any goods put in boates to be sent onboard ships at any other
place in the said Rode although hee hath made Many
voyages thither And further deposeth that if the said

aforesaid, this deponent could have fully laded her within twenty
dayes after her arrivall in the said rode, And saith that there
was above a Thousand Quarters of
