Question

review the last paragraph of Chapter IX (lines 83-109) what is the central idea that Bradford communicates

Answer 1

Bradford discusses another condition of the ship as it had endured some difficulties in strong crosswinds. This meant necessary repairs and the crew and carpenters consulted each other and made necessary repairs. He reports of one man falling over but catching a piece of the boat so that he could crawl back on. Throughout the rest of the voyage that time only one servant died.
