Description

William Marsden. Mr. Graham, Superintendent of the hulks for the reception of convicts in the Thames and at Portsmouth has asked that the hulks at Woolwich may be securely moored by yard Officers there and that the Hound sloop may be used as a hospital ship for the convicts to replace the Stanislaus, now unfit for service. We agree with the proposals, except that they think he is under a misaprehension about the Hound and wonder whether he means some other vessel at Woolwich. The Hound is not there.
