SOME THINGS TO BE TAKEN NOTICE OF.

The Fraight or Carriage by Sea of goods is after the rate of £3 per Tonne: All manner of commodities that may be eaten by Rats or Mice, must be packed up close in Chests, Cases, Hogsheads, Pipes or the like; to preserve them from that Vermine aboard of the Ships.

Seedes carried over to be sowne, must not be placed in the Ships hold,

lest they be spoyled by the heat that is there, but must be placed betweene the two Deckes or some other convenient place.

No Leather Cloathes must be carried over, for the sun and the Raine would rot and spoile them; Leather poynts are also not so good as those made of Threed. Leather Gloves likewise will spoile there, but Threed

gloves are of good service, as for Shoos and Bootes they are of good service: Linnen and Threed Stockings will be of

farre better wearing there then Woollen ones.

Those that are able shall doe well to

carry all Firelock Muskets,

or as many of them

as they can.
