APPENDIX TO CASE OF GREAT BRITAIN. 165 
value of the ‘‘W. P. Sayward,” for the year 1887, was 6,000 dollars, and on and dur- 
ing said vovage she was insured in the sum of 1,000/. on her hull, and in 2,0001. on 
her outfit and cargo. 
10. The value placed on the various articles and groups of articles comprising the 
outfit of the said schooner, as given in Exhibit (A), is the market price for each of 
said articles at Victoria aforesaid at the time of their purchase for the use and pur- 
poses of said voyage. The price charged in xhibih (A) for the seal-skins on board 
the ‘‘W. P. Say ward” when seized, namely, 5 dol. 50 ce. per skin, is the market price 
per skin current at Victoria aforesaid on or Su the close of the sealing season of 
1887, when the catch of the ‘‘W. P. Sayward,” had not such seizure taken place, 
would have been placed on the said market. 
11. That hereto annexed, marked ‘‘ (C),” is a statement of the legal and personal 
expenses incurred at Sitka and elsewhere by reason of the seizure of the ‘ W. P. 
Sayward,” the arrest and detention of her master and mate, and the claims arising 
therefrom. 
12. ‘That hereto annexed, marked “(D),” is an estimate of the loss and damage 
resulting to the owner thereof by reason of the seizure and detention of the schooner 
SW. P. ‘Say ware ” during the season of 1887, and the probable loss from the same 
cause for the season of 1888. The estimated catch of seals by the ‘‘W. P. Sayward” 
for the season of 1887 is based npon an average catch of 350 seals per boat and canoe 
for a full season, and I verily believe, had the above seizure not taken place, that, 
under ordinary circumstances, the total catch of the ‘‘W. P. Sayward” for said full 
season would have been at least the said number of 3,500 seals. 
13. That after the close of the sealing season, and during the months of October, 
November, and December, A. D. 1887, and January 1888, had the ‘‘W.P. Sayward” 
been in her owner’s possession she would have been engaged in the coasting and gen- 
eral freighting trade in and about the coasts of British Columbia, and the said claim 
of 300 dollars per month for each of said months is a fair and reasonable estimate of 
the earnings of the ‘“W. P. Sayward” for and during said months, after deducting 
therefrom the cost of wages and running expenses. 
14. In order to put the “OW, P. Sayw ard” in order and condition to engage in hunt- 
ing and fishing the full season of 1888, itis necessary that she should be in her own- 
er’s possession at Victoria aforesaid on or before the Ist day of February, A. D. 1888. 
If not then at Victoria it will be impossible to repair and refit her in time to start 
out on a full season voyage which begins about the Ist March. As during the sum- 
mer months there would be little for a vessel like the “W. P. Sayward” to do in the 
coasting and local freighting trade, if she were not got away on a fishing and hunt- 
ing voyage the season would be practically lost. The estimated profit on a full sea- 
son of hunting and fishing by the ‘ W. P. Sayward” in 1888, namely, 6,000 dollars, 
is a fair and reasonabie catch estimate, based on a catch of 3 3,500 seal- skins, and, 
deducting from the gross value thereof, at 5 dol. 50 c. per skin, the cost of outfit and 
wages based on the “W.P. Sayward’s” voyage of 1887. 
15. That hereto annexed, marked ‘‘(E),” is a statement of the principal sums on 
which interest at 7 per cent. per annum is claimed, and the time for which it is so 
elaimed. On the Ist October, A. D.1887,0n or about which date the catch of the 
“W.P. Sayward ” for 1887 would have been, in the ordinary course of events, realized 
on, the minimum rate of interest on money ‘for commercial purposes at the ‘said city 
of Victoria was, has since continued to be, and now is, 7 per cent. per annum. 
16. That hereto annexed, marked ‘‘(#),” isa statement of the articles, and groups of 
articles, and the value thereof, comprised in the outfit of the ‘ W. Pp. Sayward” on 
said voyage as given in xhibit (A), which would have been wholly or almost wholly 
consumed in the course and prosecution of a full season’s hunting and fishing voy- 
age, such as contemplated by the ‘‘ W. P. Sayward” in 1887. 
And J, James Douglas Warren aforesaid, make this solemn declaration, conscien- 
tiously believing the same to be true, and by virtue of the “Act respecting Extra- 
judicial oaths.”
