Document signed by William Bridgeman, c.1646-1699, English civil servant and Secretary to the Admiralty between 1694 and 1698.

We have received a letter this morning from Captain White of the MARY galley, that his Purser informs him that the Commissioners of the Victualling have orders to supply provisions as their Lordships have ordered that she be refitted at Woolwich and victualled for 10 weeks. If the Commissioners of the Victualling have no direction therein, the same may be sent to them and the provisions dispatched to the ship, she being ready to sail in all other respects.
