Description

Philip Stephens. The brother of the late Captain Rawling has applied for dispensation for the books and papers for passing his accounts for the Seaford and Unicorn. He commanded the Seaford from March 1755 to January 1757 and has delivered monthly books but has delivered none for the time he commanded the Unicorn from January to May 1757. The Boatswain's and Carpenter's accounts for both ships are passed and the Commissioners of the Victualling inform us they have no objection to dispensing with the want of the Captain's accounts, the Pursers having passed their accounts for the time. We opine, as he was killed in action, that dispensation may be granted
