PoD Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 I just found another interesting book from 1701 that I thought people on here would be interested in. Its entitled "An exact abridgment of all the statutes of King William and Queen Mary, and of King William III. in force and vse" by Joseph Washington and is about the parlimentary statutes issued during the year 1700. Of particular interest are pages 314-320 on the Statutes relating to Seamen. http://books.google....epage&q&f=false ...and then I discovered the wine...

"I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
