Folios 291-293. Folios 291-292. Letter from Francis Steward, Mayor of Weymouth [Dorset] to 'My Lord' [the Earl of Sandwich] that four pilots and four townspeople went on board the ketch 'Young Frederick', master Christian Hervey, bound from Stettin [Prussian Pomerania] to Bordeaux, in ignorance of where she had come from and the necessity they would be under to quarantine.
