In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

We have received your letter of yesterday with the Copy of one from the Victualling Commissioners in answer to our late Orders requiring an Account of how far they have proceeded in supplying the Fleet with the last two months Provisions ordered to be put on board them. We direct you to give us an Account at how much a Man per day the Victualling came out last year and this year. You are to give Orders that the whole of the Provisions ordered for the Fleet be put aboard them with all dispatch, and if Money is needed to carry on the victualling of the Fleet, take care that the Treasury be solicited for the same.
