The 20th day of August 1656/ [CENTRE HEADI … The 20th day of August 1656/ [CENTRE HEADING]
Examined upon the sayd allegation./
'''Rp. 6'''
'''John Rand''' of Ratcliff in the parish of Stepney and County<br />
of Middlesex Mariner aged thirty fower yeares or thereabouts<br />
a witness sworne and examined saith and deposeth as followeth videlicet
To the 1: 2: 3: 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th and 9th articles of the sayd allegation.<br />
hee saith that the arlate Captaine John Tottey being returned with his<br />
shipp the ''Edward and John'' from the Barbadoes the voyage in question with the goods in question<br />
and his sayd shipp then lying neere Bell wharfe in the River of Thames<br />
did desyre this deponent and Edward Thompson and Thomas Burgis<br />
all Masters of shipps to goe along with him on board the sayd shipp and<br />
there to survay certaine Casks or butts of sugar laden aboard the sayd<br />
shipp at the Barbadoes And this deponent and the sayd Thompson and<br />
Burgis did at his request goe with him upon the twelveth day of July<br />
1656 and being come on board did survey these severall butts following<br />
videlicet one butt number 4 marked as in the margent and to the best<br />
of this deponent and the sayd Thompsons and Burgis their judgement it did<br />
appeare that there had never bin any sugar at all put into the sayd Caske<br />
and soe they did then and hee this deponent still doth verily thinke and<br />
beleeve for that the sayd butt appeared to bee very drye and was well<br />
stowed soe that it sould not be wasted by any not received. And they<br />
did alsoe survey one other butt number six and marked '''B'''[with bar over] and an<br />
other butt No 6 and marked '''EW''' And an other butt No 2 and marked<br />
'''64C''' all which three butts did to this deponent and the sayd Thompson and<br />
Burgis evidently appear to bee the most part of every of them empty<br />
and but a smale quantity of sugar in every of them then remayning<br />
but how the same was gone he knoweth not nor can conceive for that<br />
it appeared to this deponent and the sayd Thompson and Burgis that<br />
all the sayd three butts were very well stowed and Kentlidged and that<br />
noe water soe farr they as could perceive had come to any one of them<br />
And further to these articles he cannot depose./
To the last hee saith his foregoeing deposition is true/
To the Interrogatories./ [CENTRE HEADING]
To the first Interrogatories hee saith he cometh to testifie the truth of<br />
his knowledge in this cause being<br />
required to doe by the producent Captaine Totty who gave this deponent<br />
12 ''d'' toward bearing his expenses and more he expecteth not nor is promised<br />
And to the rest of the Interrogatorie hee answereth negatively./
To the second third 4th and 5th Interrogatories he saith he cannot<br />
depose being none of the Company of the shipp ''Edward and John'' the voyage<br />
in question nor knowing ought touching the same more than what he hath<br />
before deposed./
To the last hee saith hee knoweth that it is a thing usuall that Masters have<br />
primage and Averidge paid them by their freighters upon voyages from the<br />
Barbadoes, and this deponent hath receaved primage and averidge for voyages<br />
from and averidge for voyages<br />
