In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

The owners of the WILLIAM AND MARY GALLEY, now in the River Thames, have offered her to the Board to serve their Majesties.
We direct you to cause the Ship to be forthwith surveyed, and report to us your opinion whether she is fitting to serve as a Man of War, and if so, what Number of Men and Number and nature of Guns will be proper for her.
