I am sure, realize that I deeply feel this distress,

intensified as it has been by the loss of two valued personal friends Bishop Hoare, who died in the execution

of his duty and Captain Barnes-Lawrence, who succumbed to

illness rendered fatal by exposure when endeavouring to

relieve and save other sufferers.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient,

humble servant,

Mr. Ratchford

Governor, &c.
