By his letter of the 18th inst; Colonel Richard desired that the ANNE Yacht, Robert Reynolds Master, late a Tender on the LONDON, may be hired to serve as a Tender on the Bomb Vessels now at the Nore, and that there be put on board her the same number of Anchors, Cables and other Naval Stores as were sent out last year with the Bomb Vessels for resupplying and repairing them.
We direct you to hire the ANNE Yacht for these services if she is fit for it, or otherwise some other proper Vessel, and a proportion put aboard her of Anchors, Cables and other Naval Stores for supplying the Bomb Vessels as you judge necessary.
