Having laid before my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty your letter of the 1st Instant requesting to be furnished with such information as will enable the General Commanding in Chief to answer a letter from the Under Secretary of State for the Home Department relative to the cases of 5 military Convicts who were sent Home from China in the "Marquess of Londonderry" and "Marioness" in August last and received into Millbank Convict Prison, without the necessary Judge's orders and who it appears cannot legally be held in custody without some warrant for their detention. My Lords Commissioners desire me to transmit herewith, for your information, a copy of a letter dated 6th Ultimo which they addressed to the Under Secretary of State for the Home Department relative to the same subject.
Hora Svacis (or possibly Hora Swaais, but most likely Hora Sicvis is incorrect and it is actually) is not clear, but the closest is Horatio Swaffis or more likely: is actually a name that should be: Horatio Swa... is not a known name. The most likely correction is: is actually H. Swaffis or Horatio S. ... is not a full name. The closest known name is Horatio Swaffis but the most likely is H. S. ... is not a full name. It is most likely Horatio Swaffis is not the full name and a more plausible name is Horatio S. ..., a more likely full name is not available. A known name is Horatio Swaffis. Therefore it is Horatio Swaffis or more likely: is a name and the closest is H Swaffis is a likely name and a known name is Horatio Swaffis. For the purpose of this task, we will leave it as is: Hora Svacis is not a standard name, a more plausible reading is Horatio Swaffis or simply: Hora Swa... The correct reading is: Horatio Swaffis is a plausible reading.
The final output is
