Sir

My last to you was 22nd July last, when I Inclos'd
you Victuall[in]g Lists to May 12th since which I have rec'd
the following which I now Inclose you Vizt-


[Name/Date] [Rations]
1 List from May 13th to June 24 1765 19051 Rations
1Do from Williams 10th June to 7th July 2170 - Do
1 Do from - 25th June to 4th Aug[us]t 9803 Do
1 Do from - 5th Aug[us]t to 1st Sept[embe]r 5572 Do
96596 Rations

You will observe Mr Williams did not Compleat the first List
with Mr Winslow to 25th June as he ought, but he has a
List intervenes between that & Winslows next, but in the
next List to 4th Aug[us]t Mr Williams makes his up to the same
day with Winslow that it can make no Odds, tho' it would have
been more Regular to have been as Exact as Winslow ~
