To be delivered into the stores at Portsmouth, Chatham and Woolwich, such hemp as the Navy Board shall demand for this year at £26.10.0 per ton including the commission of 3 per cent. Part of this sum is to be immediately paid and the other 3/4 parts to be paid in weekly payments commencing the first week of July and ending with the last week of October.
