In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

The GLOUCESTER has arrived at Spithead and is suddenly ordered to the Straights.
We direct you not to sheath her as formerly ordered, but cause her to be fitted for service in the Mediterranean, and victualled in the same manner for her highest complement of Men as the third Rates lately ordered to the Straights are directed to be victualled.
