However, to follow the exact format required and make necessary corrections: 1. "shale" to "shall" 2. "Acto" to "Act" 3. "exprefly" to "expressly" 4. "entended" to "extended" or "intended" 5. "thu" to "the" 6. "Say" seems out of context, possibly "it is" 7. "scaredy-Mout" is unclear, possibly a OCR error for a different phrase 8. "The queen" to "The Queen" 9. "St Stelena" to "St Helena" 10. "Thelman" to "West Indies" (as "Thelman" and "Ravi Indies" are likely errors for "West Indies" and "East Indies") 11. "میرے" is not relevant and seems to be an error or unrelated text 12. "upon your receipt" correction from "your receipt" Here is the revised HTML:
