In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board
The ship being very crank, I desire their Lordships order me some heavy ballast. I now have on board 200 tons of ballast which fills up every hole and if do not have heavy ballast or the ship girdled I cannot carry sail when the wind is fresh. Signed by Captain Elliott, commander of the LYME.
