Q.S.P. Feb. 14 1793
Dear Sir
the enclosed is from Chapman the Convict on
board the Stanislaus Hulk, the same man whose transportation
to Botany Bay you had the goodness to get suspended in
consequence of the letters I took the liberty of sending you
the indulgence he solicits of serving in the Navy for the
small remainder of his time is so moderate that I flatter
myself you will not be disinclined to obtain it for him at
a juncture when able and willing men may be of use:
inclined I think it on the footing of a bargain even as a bargain you may perhaps deem it an advantageous
one for his Majesty's service. On board of ships This, I should think
his character may be of his description he might be of use in various ways and I do not
see any in which he is likely to do mischief. I enquired
not his case and find him to have saw people of great
credit who were by no means favourably partial disposed to him
and found him to have nothing of the robber, highwayman
