Onely one company of Merchants Trading to the Eastwards from London, Ipswich, Hull, and New-castle in half this space of time have lost one hundred thousand pounds taken by the Enemy.

A Great Number of Marriners, also proportionable to this loss of shipping, have been taken and destroyed by the Enemy, and cast away through disorderly pressing, and forcing upon Win∣ter voyages, besides many more by reason of their discouragements and want of pay have either run away to the Enemy or betaken them∣selves to forraign service, or to any other Trade rather then to lead a Sea-mans life to the inestimable loss and danger of the Kingdom.
