that freight was to be payd for the same as is mentioned in the said schedule
which hee the rather beleeveth to be true for that hee findeth a parcell of sugar that
hee laded in the said ship the said voyage outwards right, and saith that at
the time of [?XXX] puttin the said Lading onboard the said ship shee was a very
strong tight and stanch ship and was then looked upon to be
the tightest ship at the Barbadoes, and that the said ship continued very strong
all the said voyage or els doubtless had perished in the sea and shee alsoe
continued pretty tight untill about seaven a Clock at night of the 13th of January
1666 in the latitude of about forty three degrees at which time hee saith
the weather was extraordinary stormy and tempestuous insomuch
that the said ship shipped much water and [?the] Lading and mens lives were in very great danger of
perishing in the sea, some partt of her sailes being blowne away
and her Master and company being wholely deprived of the governance of her by reason of the violence of the storme
and the said Master and this deponent his mate and the rest, being in that sad condition
considered what was best to be done for the preservation of all and [?XXXXXX]
that the only way soe to doe was to cutt the maine mast and its appurtenances
cleare away which was presently done, and the said mast and things therto
belonging were thereby utterly lost, and the same being cut away they
made a [?shift] to [?rule] the said [?saile], and through Gods mercy brought her safe home
although the said storme endured for severall dayes after the cuttng away her
said mast, which hee saith was a very prudent act and had not the same
bin soe done hee verily beleeveth that hee would not have bin there to have
made this relation, but that hee and the rest and the ship and Lading would
have bin lost in the sea, and sayth that the damage that owners
of the said ship sustained by the premisses amounteth to a consierable summe
but how much hee saith hee cannot guesse or estimate, but saith that hee
judgeth that such a Mast and appurtenances as were lost by the said storme
will cost new with mens labour about two hundred pounds and further
saith that if any damage is happened to any of the ships lading the same
ame and happened without all doubt by reason of the foresaid bad weather
and not through any fefect in the said ship shee being fitt to carry
any merchants goods whatsoever from the Barbadoes to London, nor by or through
any neglect or fault un the Master or any of the Company they doing their [?XXX]
dutyes to the utmost to prevent damage happening to any of the ships Lading
and taking speciall care in the stowage thereof which hee saith was done in a
very good manner which this deponent the better knoweth for that hee was principally
imployed therein et alr nescit./.
