adjust the matter for me. In his
paper the anchor & chain in question
are valued at £6 = In your claim
you state the value £6.10.0 but you
do not say the amount at which
the Salvors value them. I am
directed to have a general sale on the
8th June next - when all articles
collected during the late Mr. Stephensons
time, will be disposed of. Cannot
your anchor wait that sale -
as the expences of a Sale by Auction
of a single article will [lad?] upon it
a very heavy charge. J.S.
