Description

Folios 69-70: George Oakes, 11 Upper Brook Street, Grosvenor Square, London. Reports that he has been told by the Commissioner for Sick and Wounded Seamen that he has now been released from the parole which he gave to Contre-Admiral Pierre Jean Van Stabel, because Captain Renaudin [Jean Francois Renaudin ?] of the French warship Le Vengeur has been liberated. Seeks immediate employment in the hope that his service while on half pay at the seige of Pondicherry, in carrying despatches from Rear Admiral William Cornwallis and his time as a prisoner of war might give him preference.
