Date

Description

Extract letter from the Chatham Officers about the quality of Mr Hayton's converted New England timber. It does not seem to be better than any other timber brought from there and is similar to East Country Oak. It may convert into plank and will take note of those ships repaired with it when we can better judge its quality.
