In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

I have laid before my Lords of the Admiralty your letter of the 18th inst; and am to inform you that they have sent Orders to the HAMPTON COURT in the Downs to Convoy the CANTERBURY Storeship to Plymouth, or to order the FRIENDLY SOCIETY to do it, in case when they arrive at Spithead the HAMPTON COURT is not ready to sail with them.
When she comes to Plymouth further care will be taken for a Convoy to see her to Bristol and then to Ireland.
