[Council to Capt. Bryan]

When we directed you to deliver Capt. Stewart the Anchor he
lent the State, we understood the Plater had two Anchors besides :
this not being the Case, you must suspend the Execution of our
Order, until we otherwise direct therein. You will inform Capt.
Stewart when he applies to you, that we have countermanded our
former Order, and will make him full Satisfaction for his Anchor.
