William Wesley Pole. Admiral Sir Henry E Stanhope has forwarded a letter from Captain Rogers of the Thisbe stating that the Clerk of the Cheque at Deptford has refused to pay the reward allowed for apprehending deserters and concealed seamen to a Sergeant and party of Marines belonging to the Thisbe, because they were granted to persons belonging to the ship.
