Ad 4 arlum deponit that the said Mr Southin in the shipps outward bound voyage
from Virginia did leave and give over the Care and Command of his said shipp and
goods, to the Mate, Boatswaine, and rest of the Company, namely hee soe gave it
over about a day or two before the shipp made the Westwards Islands, and
did not as a Master observe or doe ought or reassume his command untill shee
had shott a league or two within the Capes of Virginia, At which time and place hee
coming hastily upon deck asked the company whether they were bound and the
mate answering that they were bound for Potomack in Virginia, and that they
had shott within the Capes of Virginia or to that purpose, the Master affirmed that
they were not within the Capes, and commanded them to gett their tacks
aboard, and stand off to sea againe. Howbeit hee saith the Mate boatswaine
Carpenter aand others of the shipps company having bin before at Virginia
and knowing that they were within the Capes did contrary to his command
and against his will carry the said shipp up the Bay and put into Rapahanock
where the freighters to whom they were consigned did dwell. And saith that
after the said Master went ashore at Rapahanock hee seemed to bee madd and
frequently rann up into the Country and hidd himselfe in the woods there, and
behaved himselfe after the manner of a ffrantique person. The premisses
hee deposeth ffor that hee was one of the shipps company the said
voyage. Et alr nescit.
