Folios 150-151: Joseph Turner, Gosport. Enclosing three protections, taken from seamen sent to the Royal William, and noting that two of them bear the signature of Lagemann, named in their Lordships' order of the previous January, while the other is an American protection belonging to William Reed, yet was found on the person of Thomas Golding, late of the transport Henry, having been given it by Reed who possessed a second protection. Golding claims to have been cleared from the impress many times by means of this protection. Turner observes that protections in general are often suspicious, and their Lordships might consider addressing the evil by annulling all of them within a certain time period and allowing only new ones.
