Sir --
Having been informed that you
possess Manorial rights over a portion of the Coast
between Flamborough Head & the Spurn Point, -
I am directed by the Board of Trade, -- as the
Receiver of Wreck for that District, -- to bring
under your notice the 454th Section of the M. S
Act of 1854 (17 & 18 vic c 104) -- Whereby it is enacted
that

"Any Lord of the Manor who is entitled to
"unclaimed Wreck, found on any place &c --
"such Lord of the Manor shall deliver to such
"Receiver a statement containing the particulars
"of his Title & the address to which notices are to
"be sent -- and upon such statement being so
"delivered -- and Proof made &c -- such
"Receiver whenever he takes possession of any
"Wreck shall send notice accordingly," --

I will therefore thank you to inform me
of the extent of Coast within the said limits over
which you claim Manorial rights, --with
the particulars of your Title thereto, -- and
the address to which I am to send Notices, -- Unless
you have already done so in compliance with the 10th
Sec of the act 9 & 10 vic ch 99 -- in which latter case I will
thank you to inform me of the date of your
letter & to whom such particulars were supplied
J.S.
