We must wait to see whom Sir Charles Mitchell may recommend for vacant post.

W Wingfiel 8- CPd may 25.8

I have heard Nicolle was thought very well-spoken of, a good candidate for the Audit Office. He was recently in Jamaica when several ships were there.

I think he will do haste for discharge when in Chantrey's office.
