Description

Folios 195-196: Robert Larkan, HMS Camilla, Madeira. Informs that William Little, Gunner was left behind at Plymouth. The ship sailed to the Gun Wharf for stores, but Little did not meet at the Gun Wharf as directed nor return to the ship the next day. Because the stores did not arrive the next day and because the vessels at the Gun Wharf were aground, the Captain sent for the stores by the Admiral's Tenders.In his favour, iIt is possible that Little had the stores ready at the Gun Wharf. He is a very old man and has been in the service a number of years,
