CLEMENT Man I have writ myself but six years, but I have used the sea nine or ten years.
JONES Have you known of any men that have been killed, and thrown into the sea, or who have fallen in and been drowned ? Pray tell us the difference as to their swimming and sinking.
CLEMENT In the year '89 or '90, in Beachy fight, I saw several thrown overboard during the engage- ment, but one particularly I took notice of, that was my friend, and killed by my side ; I saw him swim for a considerable dista...nce from the ship ; and a ship coming under our stern, caused me to lose sight of him, but I saw several dead bodies floating at the same time ; likewise in another engagement, where a man had both his legs shot off, and died instantly, they threw over his legs ; though they sunk, I saw his body float: likewise I have seen several men who have died natural deaths at sea, they have when they have been dead had a considerable weight of ballast and shot made fast to them, and so were thrown over- board ; because we hold it for a general rule, that all men swim if they be dead before they come into the water; and on the contrary, I have seen men when they have been drowned, that they have sunk as soon as the breath was out of their bodies, and I could see no more of them.
