In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

Advice has come from Cadiz by letters dated 11/21 January, that the Turkey convoy has arrived there and is in want of all sorts of provisions, for which it was feared they would have to remain until credits came from England. You are directed to give orders to the Commissioners of the Victualling that if there are not sufficient credits at Cadiz already, that they transmit what credits may be necessary to provision the YARMOUTH, CANTERBURY, COVENTRY, DRAGON, FALMOUTH, GLOUCESTER, ROCHESTER, ROMNEY and ADVENTURE to bring them to England.
