Description

Folios 172-173: The Hon Philip Wodehouse, HMS Volage, Hamoaze. Reports that before he brought the ship away from her mooring next to the hulk, Musette, he had the latter searched and found various items (gaskets, points, 'junk') in the warrant officers' quarters. The cook G. Kavanaugh, the boatswain, and the carpenter Thomas Bissett, and the purser, are all implicated, though he thinks the cook embezzled the greater part with the aid of the boatswain.
