In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

Upon consideration of a letter from you to our Secretary concerning the debt of £14600 on Bills for Stores and Workmanship in the first Book, we directed the Cashier to the Treasurer of the Navy to give us an Account to whom the said debts were paid. He has given us an Account of several Lists of Navy Bills which were assigned by your Board for payment out of the said £14600, which Bills he informs us are now in your Office. We have appointed Mr Williams, one of the Clerks of this Office, together with Mr Copeland, Clerk to the Cashier to the Treasurer of the Navy, to come to your Office and bring to us all such Bills as are mentioned in these Lists. You are required and directed, not only to permit them to search for and bring to us all said Bill, but to cause them to be assisted in their search.
