In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board
An offer has been made to this Board by the owners of a new Ship at Southampton, built there for a Privateer, to hire her into their Majesties' Service.
We direct you to cause a survey to be taken of her, and opine whether she is fitting to serve as a Man of War, and if so, what number of Men and number and nature of Guns will be proper for her.
