putt into Scarborowe being the neerest por … putt into Scarborowe being the neerest port (shee not being able<br />
to endure the sea any farther) whereby the ''Samuell'' was as aforesayd much<br />
damnified but to what value to estimate the same dammage hee knoweth not<br />
This hee deposeth being one of the Company of the ''Samuell'' and assisting<br />
as much as might be to have prevented the sayd disaster And further hee cannot<br />
depose./
To the 3 hee saith the sayd Otters shipp having (as hee beleeveth) received<br />
dammage alsoe by the sayd disaster did of this deponents sight continue her<br />
course towards Whitby arlate which is some leagues off from where the disaster<br />
happened and farther off there than Scarborowe was whereas the sayd Otter<br />
might better have put in at Scarborough and have arrived there some howers<br />
sooner than the ''Samuell'' could have done or did arive there the ''Samuell'' being very<br />
much damnified as aforesayd by which meanes (as this deponent heard from<br />
some of the sayd Otters Company of this shipp who came after-<br />
wards to Scarborough) the sayd Otters shipp was by then runn on shoare<br />
in Robin hoods bay and bilged upon a rock which much preiudiced her and<br />
further to this article hee cannot depose./
To the 4th hee saith that notwithstanding the sayd shipps soe bilgeing upon<br />
the rock her all her Cables Masts sayles yards Anchors gunnes and other<br />
tackle and furniture were preserved and saved and brought of this deponents sight<br />
and knowledge to Scarborough And saith hee alsoe heard at Scarborough<br />
that the sayd Otter after his shipp was soe bilged was offered tenn pounds<br />
sterling for at Robinhoods bay for his lading of Coles and refused the same<br />
and alsoe that hee sold the hull of his sayd shipp for fifteen pounds five shillings<br />
of like money And further to this article hee cannot depose/
To the 5th hee saith that hee verily beleeveth and is perswaded in his<br />
conscience that if the sayd Otter had carried his sayd shipp into Scarborough<br />
as the sayd Lee did the ''Samuell'' (which hee might very well have done<br />
if hee pleased soe to doe) hee the sayd Otter had preserved both his shipp<br />
and ladeing from all hurt save what it received by the sayd Otters running<br />
it willfully or at least carelessely upon the ''Samuell'' in meanes aforesayd<br />
and might have avoided the dammage which afterwards happened to her<br />
And this deponent for the reasons before declared well knoweth that<br />
what dammage happened to the sayd Otters shipp and ladeing happened<br />
thereto meerely by the carelesseness or willfullnes of the sayd Otter and<br />
his Company and not through any default of the sayd Lee or any<br />
of his Company of the ''Samuell'' And further hee cannot depose/
To the last hee saith his foregoing deposition is true/
Repeated before doctor Godolphin/
