In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board
As to the number of Men formerly allowed to the Flag Officers you are now to govern yourselves as directed by the last Establishment for an increase in Pay to Officers of their Majesties' Fleet, viz; by allowing each Flag the number of Servants directed by the said Establishment and no more.
We also inform you that the Complement of Men allowed to the hired Merchant Ships of the fourth Rate are to be reduced by the same Rule as their Majesties' Ships are.
