In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

HM has asked us to prepare the draft of a declaration for encouraging seamen to serve aboard their Majesties ships. Ask you attend us this evening at six of the Clock for the concluding on such draft as will best answer the service in all the ports.
Admiral Herbert has by letter received today complained very much of the ill fitting out of the Ships with him, which we desire you come prepared to answer.
