In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

Captain Sanderson, Commander of the Yacht WILLIAM & MARY, has informed us that its Mast is not taut enough to hoist the Sail, and otherwise inconvenient.
We direct you to cause her to be Masted as you judge best to contribute to her sailing and working.
You are to cause the Officers and Company of the CONCEPTION PRIZE at New England to be paid the Wages due to them, if you have no objection.
