The Commissioners of the Ordnance wrote to us on 4 September to advise that the 30 Saker guns proposed for the PLAY prize, cannot be supplied out of their Majesties stores, but the guns listed in the margin of this letter may be spared. You are directed, if you have no objection thereto, to have these guns established to her and to make a report to the Board. We confirm that all ships taken up for transporting the forces to Ireland are to continue until further order.
