Letter written by Frederick Jennings Thomas from HMS SPARTIATE to his sister Miss Mary Thomas.

Letter written by Thomas from HMS SPARTIATE at Portsmouth to his sister Miss Mary Thomas. In his letter he writes that the SPARTIATE is not to be paid off and that he had written to the Admiralty asking to be transferred to the FOUDROYANT. He also mentions that one of the lieutentants had left the ship, meaning an increased workload for him and no time to visit London.
