In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

We are sending you an extract of a letter from Mr Henry Lisle of Whitby, giving us an account of a Longboat, with other things belonging to her, which he reported was from the SWEEPSTAKES.
We direct you to cause Mr Lisle to be paid the charges he has borne in salvaging and securing the Longboat, and that it be received from him by the Commander of the PLAY PRIZE, or any other of the Commanders of the Convoy Ships to the Colliery, in order to it being delivered into their Majesties' Stores.
