Document signed by James Southerne, Secretary to the Admiralty, fl. 1690-1694.

The Commander of the SWEEPSTAKE which is at present employed on the Guard of the Herring fishery off Yarmouth has written that he is in great need of a Best Bower Cable, the supply of which he has requested some time since from your Board.
I desire you will speedily dispatch it to him, if it is not already gone, and that you will let us know what Order is taken for furnishing him therewith.
