Description

John Wilson Croker. Are returning two letters and enclosures from Sir Edward Owen on the sending of the old and unserviceable stores at Trincomalee to England. When Mr Craven, the Master Shipwright, was in this country, he was instructed to take measures on his return, to effect the most advantageous disposal of them, by sale or otherwise. When the stores arrive by the John Craig, it can be ascertained whether it would have been better to have sold them in India or to have incurred freight charges. Unless we know their condition, we cannot give an opinion on the subject.
