And the laid Order being read accordingly ; Refolved, That this Houle will, upon Iburfday Morning next, refolve itfelf into a Committee of the whole Houle, upon the faid Bill. The Houle, according to Order, proceeded to take into Confideration the Report, which was made from the Committee, to whom the Petition of the Owners and Mailers of Ships, employed in the Coal Trade, between London and shields ; and the feveral other Petitions relating co the River Tyne-, were feverally referred. And the faid Report was read; and is as followeth ; viz. To prove the Allegations of rhe Firft, Second, Fourth, and Eleventh mentioned Petitions, Captain James Wilfon, being examined, faid, That he has ufed the Coal Trade Fourteen or Fifteen Years, butthat he had not been axNewcaJile thefe Seven Years; that there are 500 Sail of Ships employed in the Coal Trade, between London and Newcajile, and that they carry, upon an Average, 60 Ton of Ballaft each, and make about 6 or 7 Trips in a Year-, that the Method ufed to difeharge their Ballaft, when they arrive at New* cajlle, is, by putting it into Keels; and fometimes Ships go to Willington and Jarrow Quays, to difeharge their Ballaft; and after it is thrown on the Quays, it is carted away from the Face of the Quay, about 100 or 150 Yards Diftance. That the Ballaft is fubjeft to be blown off the Quays,, and walhed into the River, by hard Rains, and that the Channel has been growing worfe from Year to Year; that formerly Ships drawing 13 Feet Water might lead within a Mile of NewcaJHc, and come down the River; but when the Witnefs was there laft, it was impoflible for a Ship of that Draught of Water to fail down from the fame Place, owing chiefly to the London Ballaft in 2 * ' the the River -, and at that Time South Shields was blocked up and there was no Place for large Ships to load at but at North Shields. That he knows the Soundings from Tinmoulb Bar, into 14 Fathom Wattr �, that they are very regular into 10 Fathom, and then runs off fteep into 20, 30, and fo on ; that it has been the Cuftom for Ships coming into the Harbour to caft their Ballaft in 14 Fathom �Water, before they come in, and that he has ften 20 Ships at a Time do it. And being aiked, Whether Ballaft thrown into 14 Fathom Water can be of any Detriment to the Harbour ? He faid, he is convinced that there is no Motion at the Bottom of that Depth, the Tide running no deeper than 9 Fathom; and that Ballaft dropt in 11 Fathom can never return to the Harbour. That it has been the Cuftom formerly for Ships to go to the Quays to difeharge their Ballaft, when there was Room, but they now can only go in Spring Tides. That he has feen Ships of 20 Keels of Coals at Jarrow Quay ; and that Ships that could go to that Quay formerly at Neap Tides, could, when he was there laft, go only at Spring. And being afleed, he faid, It would not be convenient for Ships to go high up the River to difeharge their Ballaft, except they loaded there; and that the general Place of loading is at Shields. That Ballaft thrown without the Bar cannot return; but if thrown within, or near the Bar, on the Outfide, it would damage the Bar; that he has never heard of Mafters of Ships being punifted for throwing Ballaft in 14 Fathom, but has heard of their being punifhed for cafting it in lefs-, and that the Diftance from the Bar, into 14 Fathom at Low Water, is near 4 Miles, into 5 Fathom 4 a Mile, into 10 Fathom a Mile; and from 14 to 20 Fathom 4 a Mile ; and that Ballaft thrown a Mile to Seaward of the Bar, cannot hurt it. That the Names of the feveral Quays in the River are; Burdens Quay, Broad Landing and Simpfon's Quays; farrow Quay, Willington* St. Anthony's* South Shore* Fryar Goofe* Ewjburn* Skinners Burn* Fellon* and Heb- bren. That he has known Keels, after they have taken in the Ballaft, detained 3 Days at Shields before they could go to the Quays to unload ; and that Nufances created on the Outfide of the Bar, cannot be removed fo eafy as if within the River. Captain John Slightholme* being examined, faid, That he has been Mafter of a Ship 40 Years ; that he was at Shields about a Month ago, and he went up to New- tajlle in a Wherry ; that not fo many Ships by a confi- derable Number can lay afloat now in Shield's Harbour, as could have done within his Memory �, that Ships of Twenty Keels cannot take in their full Loading at South Shields or off Burdens Quay, owing to the Shoalnefs of the Water, occafioned by the Ballaft wafting off the Quays, and dropping from Ships throwing Ballaft upon the Quays; that he has feen the Inhabitants of North and South Shields throw Dirt and Soil into the River, which he thinks muft hurt the River, but never heard any Complaint of it; that there is not Water for Keels to come down the River, at laft Quarter Ebb, without grounding, which formerly they might; and is the Means of preventing Ships from loading fo foon as they otherwife would, and prevents Ships from making fo many Voyages as they could do, if they could get Coals in proper Time. That he has feen Ten or Twelve Ships at a Time loading at the Upper End of Jarrow Quay, which is now dry. That 40 Years ago Hay Hole was the general Place for Ships of 13 or 14 Keels to load, but they cannot load there now at the Firft of the Flood; and that if Ships could load there now, it would fave ZQ d. a Keel. That about 16 Years ago, he faw 20 Ton of Ballaft wafli off Jarrow Quay into the River in about 3 or 4 Hours, occafioned by a high Wind and high Tide ; that loaded Ships cannot lay there, there being not quite 9 Feet Water; and that he has loaded there in 14 or 15 Feet. A printed Order of the Court of Confervators of the River Tyne* dated the 22d Day of Otlober* in the Year *753i was produced by the Agent, and read; and is hereunto annexed ; N* 1. And being aiked, whether the Remedy propofed in the faid Paper, would remedy the Grievance complained of ? He faid, he believed it would; that the River is contrafted fince he knew it; and that in feme Parts it is not fo deep by 8 or 9 Feet Water; that Jarrow Slike takes in a large Quantity of Water, which is of Ufe to cleanfe the Harbour; and that if the River was deepened 8 or 9 Foot from Willington Quay to South Shields* it would hold more Back Water, which would foeur the Harbour more than can be done now, and keep it clear; that Durtwicb Sand has gfown 3 or 400 Yards lower down than it ufed to be; that where the Anchors now lay dry, the Witnefs has lain afloat; that he has feen 100 Sail of Ships lay a-girt, there were then 20 Feet Water, there is as much there now in the lower Part-, that is the only Place Ships have to load in; that between Durtwicb Sand and Burden's Quay it was formerly very deep, and now it is almoft dry at Low Water in Spring Tides; and that it is ftoaler now than 20 Years ago by a great many Feet; that Ships of 17 and 18 Foot Draught of Water may load all the Way up to Stevenfcn's Hole* which is about 1000 Yards above Cuftom Houfe Quay, at which Place there is 23 or 24 Feet Water; lie faid, That the Middle Ground has been growing up thefe 12 Years, and that it is dry at Low Water and very dangerous; believes there was no fuch Sand there 13 Years ago; that there have been Attempts to remove it, having feen Two Keels at work upon it at a Time, could not fay pofitively who employed them, but fup- pofed the Corporation of Newcajlle; that the Inn Sand has increafcd fince he knew it, and is within the Harbour, and ftretches over to the Northward above a Third Part of the River; that there is a Buoy there, which is dry at Low Water; that from the North Shore to the End of the Sand, is about 120 or 130 Fathom-, that the Middle Ground is below the Inn Sand between rhe Two Points, and from Point to Point is about 300 Yards; that the Middle Ground lies rather to the Northward between the Two Points about the Middle of the Channel; that from the Middle Ground to the North Side is about 50 Fathom, which makes it difficult for Ships to get out; that he cannot fay the Bar is broader; it is very good now, and has been all the Winter; that there is 7 Feet Water upon it at Low Water; that 40 Years ago Ships were of the Burthen of 12 or 13 Keels, now there are Ships from 20 to 28 Keels; that he has feen 300 Sail loading at Shields at One Time this Winter ; that if the River was navigable as formerly, large Ships would go higher up to load, as it would fave a great Expence ; that he has known Ships of 15 Keels come into Tinmoutb Haven, at Shields One Tide, and go out the next; that Ships put their Ballaft into Keels for Difpatch, but in general Ships go to the Ballaft Quays when they can get up, and when Quays are nor full of Ships, but when they are, they make ufe of Keels fit is impofiible to unload Ballaft upon Quays fo foon as to put it into Keels; and that they cannot get up to Willington and Jarrow Quays for want of Water -, that formerly the Witnefs has backed ant: filled, and turned to Windward in his Ship as far as Jarrow Quay ; and that he has feen Ships of 25 Keels do it 40 Years ago -, there was 20 Ships of that Burthen employed then, which cannot be done now, but by Ships of about 7 Keels; that the Expence of difeharging Ballaft into Keels is 13 s. ^d. a Keel, and 4/. for a Warrant; that the Method of cafting Ballaft into the Keel is, Two Keels come along " fide fide the Ship, one of each Side, and a Port Sail is nailed under the Port, from whence the Ballaft is thrown out to prevent any from falling into the River; the Keels then go to the Quays, where they have a Stage laid between the Keel and the Quays, and then call the Ballaft on the Quay; that there never was fo large a Quantity of Coals fliipped in anyOne Year, by many thoufand Chaldrons, as in the laft Year, and more might have been (hipped, if they could have got Ships and Coals ; but Coals could not be got, A printed Order of the Court of Confervators of the River 7)�, dated the 5th Day of November 1764, was produced by the Agent, and read ; and which Paper is hereunto annexed, N� 2. Shields about 20 Years ago would hold more than 200 Sail of Ships; 20 Sail of Ships might have laid where it is now dry, this between Durtwicb Sand and the North Shore. . That it is Two Foot from the Upper Part of Jarrow Quay to the Water at Spring Tides in fome Places, and at other Places, the Water comes to the Edge of the Quay �, and that the Quay has been raifed about 10 or 12 Years ago; that the Ballaft lies fo near the Edge of the Key, that it runs over-, that it is carried away in Carts from the Face of the Key, at about a Mile diftant, up a Hili ; but that it frequently blows into the River from the Top of the Hill -, and that he has known the fmall Ballaft to blow �upon the Ships Decks �, and that a great deal of Ballaft falls between the Keels and the Quays. Mr. Ralph Shorten, a Sea Pilot, being examined, faid. That he has ufed the Coal and other Trade to Newcafile 20 or 30 Years ; carries Goods from London, and unloads at Newcafile Quay -, that there is not fo great a Depth of Water there as. *0 Years ago, it has been growing up this 20 or 23 Years; that Ships of 8 4 Feet cannot come to the Cow Crane at Neap Tides; has known Ships of 11 or 12 Feet at the Quay; that he has known Ships fall over and receive Damage, owing to the Corporation not cleaning the Quay Side; and that his Ship had like to have been funk there laft Year, file having 7 Feet Water in her Hold, by reafon of a Parcel of Stones lying there that fell from the Quay ; that he made a Complaint of it to one of the Aidermen, but could get no Satisfaftion �, and that he petitioned the Common Council about 3 Weeks ago, and has had no Anfwer -, but the Stones were removed foon after he received the Damage; that the River is in a worfe State than ever he knew it; and he attributes the Caufe of it chiefly to the London Ballaft filling between the Keels and the Quays, as he has feen 2 or 3 Heaps of it laying before St. Anthony's Quay at one Time-, and he faid, in the Year 1749, 5 Sail lay afloat where it is now dry ar Low Water; and allo faid, the River is damaged by Dirt and Soil being thrown therein by the Inhabitants of Shields, and the Ballaft being blown oft'the Quays into the River. And he further faid, That fometimes Ships difeharge their Ballaft at Willington and South Shore, about a Mile below Newcafile-, and that a Number of Ships at a Time may difeharge their Ballaft at South Shields and farrow-, there is Water for a Ship in Ballaft, though not fo much Water at farrow Quay as there ufed to be; all Ships going home are called Light Ships; if they had a mind they might go to the Quays; that he has feen 200 Sail of Ships lying in the River at one Time, One half of which have been Ships of 26 Keels; and that he thinks as many may lay there now. That Keels are employed for Difpatch, and being lefs Trouble to Ships than going to the Quays, for being in good Birth, they like to keep it; that there is a dry Dock at South Shields, and very good Water, but don�t know exaftly how much; that there is a dry Dock at Howden Lans, and has known many Ships repaired there; that a King�s Ship, a fmall Frigate, was built upon the Wharf there about 2 or 3 Years ago. That it is Two Miks from the Mouth of the Har- VOL. XXX. 361 bour to the Dock, and that he apprehends the largeft Ship in the Coal Trade might go into that Dock ; that there is 7; Feet Water right off the Dock ; and that, at about 10 or 15 Yards diftant from the Dock, it is dry at Low Water. And being alked, Whether he remembers the Condition of the River to be fometimes better and fometimes worfe within thefe 4 Years ? He faid it has been growing ftioaler every Year, and that it grows worfe and worfe; that the Frefhes run ftrong down the River, which varies the River; that fometimes it is better and fometimes worfe; and that he has feen Sand Banks driven down by the Current; that Ships formerly went up the North Channel, but are now obliged to go up the South, by reafon of the North Channel being filled up; and that he has feen Two Keels at a Time working upon the Sands, which muft make them better. Being alked, whether he knew Thomas Saunderfon and Thomas Robinfon? He faid, Yes; that they are River Pilots, and faw them at Wefiminfier Bridge, and believes they were fent for to be examined by the Petitioners; that they told him they would have fpoke the Truth, if they had loft their Bread by it; and that they failed to the North lately in a Ship belonging to him. Captain John Markham faid, That he ferved his Time out of the Port of Shields; that he founded the River lately, and that it is 10 Years ago fince he was at Newcafile before he went to found it; and that it is a good deal worfe than when he founded it before in fome Places. That off Willington Quay there was only 2 Feet Water at Low Water in the Mid Channel for about 8 Yards, and that he had his Right Foot upon the Ground, and was not over his Boot; that he has paft that Place in 1 Ship that drew 12 Feet Water, and that it has been growing up a great while, but that he did not found on both Sides the Channel; that about 3 or 400 Yards of the upper Part of Jarrow Quay about 2 or 3 Tier of Stones broke down, and the Stones lay loofe upon the Quay, and that he faw the Tide flow upon that Part which was broke down; that from the Bar into 14 Fathom is not quite a Mile at Low Water, and from Shields about Two Miles; and that there is better Water now upon and without the Bar than there was formerly ; that the Soundings increafe gradually from the Bar into 14 Fathom; that it is cuftomary to caft Ballaft in 14 Fathom, and that the Witnefs has done it 4 or 5 Times in a Year; and that it is impoffible for it to return fo as to damage the Harbour. Mr. Robert Dixon was Mafter of a Ship in Coal Trade 10 Years, confirmed the Evidence of Captain Shotten in refpeft to the River growing up, and attributes the Caufe of it to the London Ballaft being brought into the River, for that he has feen Ballaft drop into rhe River, both from the Ships when calling it into Keels, and in calling it from the Keels upon the Quays; and alfo confirmed the Evidence of the laft Witnefs, in refpeft to the upper Part of farrow Key being down 120 Yards, the Cuftom of calling Ballaft in 14 Fathom Water, and the Soundings without the Bar; and added, that Ships cannot go to that Part of the Quay which is fallen down, there not being Water; believes the Ballaft lays at about Twenty Yards from the Breach in the Quay, and be- lievs that the Water does not flow fo high as the Ballaft at Spring Tides, and that the Expence of calling Ballaft at Burden's Key is 14^ A Ton, which is paid at die Town Houfe. Andhe further faid,That he has feen Ballaft fwept off the Key, but not in any great Quantities, about 3 or 4 Shovels full at aTime, when the Ship moves away by Hawfers and Tow Lines, which were made fall on Shore in order to fallen the Ships, which he has feen lay at the Foot of the Quays; that he has heard it Ihould be trimmed back 3 Feet from the Face of the Quay, but as that is not always done, it frequently falls into the River, and frequenr�v 4 Z AT the Sand is blown off into the River in high Winds and dry Weather; that he cannot lay exactly, but thinks Durtwich Sand has been dry about a Year or Two, and that it has been growing up for 20 Years pad; that the lower Part is grown more over to the Southward ; that the Witnefs has feen 2 Keels at a Time working upon the Repair of the Harbour, but not more ; that he does not think the fame Number of Ships can now load at Shields as could within his Memory, but that it the Harbour was to be in a better Condition, there would be a quicker Difpatch for Shipping, if they could get Coals; and it would be done with a great deal more Eafe. Mr. Andrew Mackenzie, a Seaman, and has been Mailer of a Ship, being examined, faid, 'I hat he knows the Harbour of Shields, that in fome Places where Ships have lain afloat, that drew 10 Foot Water, is now dry at Low Water; that Durtwicb Sand grows worfe every Year, and that it is dry in the Infide, and they now build Ships there; that he has frequently feen the Ballad walk olf the (Trays in large Spring Tides, and blow off in high Winds ; that it is cuftomary for Ships to call their Ballad in 14 Fathom before they come into Harbour, and has feen it done, and that the Witnefs has done it feveral Times ; that it is impofiible for Ballad thrown in 14 Fathom to hurt the Bar or the Herd ; that from the Bar into 14 Fathom is about 1; Mile at Low Water, and at High Water | of a Mile, and that Ballad cad within | of a Mile of the Bar will prejudice it; that the Frefhes coming down the River bring great Quantities of Sand and Sullage, rhe lighted of which will go over the Bar, but the greateft Part remain within, otherwife the Sands would nut grow up as they do ; that the Harbour might in Time be blocked up by Sullage coming down, even if Colliers were not to bring Ballad into the River. That the Witnefs has known Two Keels working at a Time for 1, 2, or 3 Months in a Year for 10 or 12 Years pad to cleanfe the Harbour, and he fuppofes took out 20 or 25 Ton in a Tide; that the Shoals and Sands in a River are Obllructions to the Navigation, and if the fame were removed, Ships would lay there with more Safety; but don�t think they would make more Voyages in a Year; that he has feen this lad Winter 120 Ships in One Tier at a Time; in fome little Places, Two Teir; that when moored they lie with their Sterns to the Shore acrofs the Harbour ; that the Channel of the River in fome Parts is wider, and in fome narrower than formerly, but the Depth in thofe Parrs is much the fame; that Sands will always walk from one to another, and that he has feen Ballad Heaps upon Durtwicb Sands, 20 or 30 Tons, as high as his Middle, which he is lure was London Ballad; but at the lame Time faid, that Ballad thrown upon Durtwicb Sand may fink in, and the fine Sand appear ar Top, fo that one cannot be didinguifhed from the other; that he has feen Sand Keels working upon the Inn Sand and Middle Ground, and near Willington Quay, to clear the River, fuppofes by the Order, and at the Expence of the Magidratcs of Newcafle; that the Obfiruftions in the River are equally occafioned by Sand as well as Ballad, for he has no Reafon to think that the Ballad is of more Obdru&ion than the Sand ; but believes it to be more prejudicial; that he law 3 or 400 Sail of Ships in Tinmouih Haven this Winter, and that he cannot fay he heard of any Damage being done to any of them ; that the Harbour would have contained 200 more; that there is 3 or 4 Feet Water in the Middle Ground, and that he believes the Bar to be in as good a Condition now as ever it was; that the Shoals in the River has occafioned no Delays hitherto, but they may. Mr. John Douglas, has been Mader of a Ship fome Years, and ferved his Time in Whitby Coal Trade, being examined faid, That Twenty-five Years ago he worked for about 2 Years in the Ballad Keels; that he has often feen Ballad hove overboard into the River; that they are fumetimes obliged to heave the Ballad overboard out of the Keels, for fear of finking, and that he thinks that 1 or 2 Ton may fall between the Keel and the Quay in throwing the Ballad on Shore at Low Water; that he has known Ballad lay in Heaps at the Edge of the Quay for a Month before it was carried away ; that great Quantities of it is frequently walked and thrown into the River by Rains and Floods, and by Haulers; that the Witnefs was at Shields the 20th Indane, and that he founded the River, and that it is world than when he firft knew it, and it grows worfe and worfe; that he is not ufed to Purveying, but furveyed the River J 5 Years ago 20 Times, but had not got the Soundings, having no Bufinefs with them-, that he faw Heaps of Ballad lay at the Foot of llebum and Willington Quays, which had been thrown from the Keels that Morning, and laid in fuch a Manner that the Tide might walh it away; and that they are very care- lefs in throwing the Ballad from the Keels upon the Quays. Mr. 'Thomas Gum, a Mafon, being examined, faid, That he is frequently employed by the Confervators to repair the Front of the Ballad Quays; that fome are kept in good Repair, and fome are not; in fome Places the Foundation of the Quays give way and bulge out; that he has been paid a confiderable Sum of Money lately for repairing Willington Quay, and which is in as good Condition now as ever he knew it; that he has obferved as good Water lately at the Fligh End of it, but the Low End is not fo good; that he has been on the River Jury, and that they have prefented Nufan- ces every Year for 16 Years pad; he knows the Ballad Heaps at the High F.nd of South Shields, called Aiderman Sim/fon's; and about 8 or 9 Years ago prefented that in particular 3 or 4 Times, for the Ballad coming too near the Water, it ufed to walk in when the Water flowed; that the Nufance has not been removed, but no Ballad is permitted to be laid there now ; that there is a Jury fworn every Year, and the Judge gives 3 Charge to the Jury to prefent all Nufances, and every Thing that may detriment the River; that he has frequently been with the Jury to view Nufances by Order of the Confervators; that the Inn Sand has grown up, and the Sand at the Ead End of farrow Quay; that when Nufances arc reported to the Confervators, they have ordered mod of them to be removed; that he fpeaks of 9 Years ago, but that lately they have been defirous of keeping Things in the bed Order they can; that he has feen Two Lighters at work at a Time, to take Ballad out of the River, and has feen Keels at work at Willington Quay, and underflood they were Craft fent on Purpofe, by Direction of the Corporation, to make Births for Ships to lie in ; that the River is narrower now than formerly, but it is out of the Power of the Corporation to prevent it, as it is chiefly owing to the Land Floods walking the Sand down; that the Shoals in the River are occafioned partly by the Ballad, partly by the Sand walking down, and partly by the Influx of the Tide. Mr. Robert Fcrfer, Ballad Conveyor, being examined, faid, That in December 1763 he faw upwards of 400 Ton of Ballad walked off Saint Anthony's Key in one Tide; that he is employed to cart the Ballad away immediately from the Face of the Key, which, if he had dona, tint Accident would not have happened, and that it was the greated Flood he ever faw; and that his Employers had a Right to cart it at his Expence. Mr. Thomas J furry, Mader of a Ship, being examined, faid, That he has been Mader of a Collier 25 Years, and lias ufed the Coal Trade 31 Years; that the Harbour of Shields appears to be grown up; that Ships cannot pals the Middle Ground with as much Safety as formerly, there being lefs Water, and it has grown nearer the Point where the Fort Hands, which Point caufcs an Eddy Tide, and alleys the Steerage, and makes the Turn fo fudden, it makes it dangerous; that he believes large Vcflek cannot get to Willington and farrow Quays with ns much Safety as formerly, but that he has not ufed the Quays much; r
