TitleLetters from Sydney
DescriptionLetters sent from Whitehall [London]. Item 705:73 BA14450/337/6 (5) states that he has sent orders to the Sheriff of Worcester to bring the four female convicts in the county gaol to town, from whence he expects they will be sent abroad with most of the male convicts onboard the hulks in the Thames. Assures Lord Coventry that he will give orders to remove all the remaining transports from Worcester gaol once this has happened.
Item 705:73 BA14450/337/6 (6) requests Lord Coventry to move an address in the House of Lords, as 'the present critical situation of affairs makes it extremely desirable that the Session should be opened by persons of Rank and Character, and likewise of experience'.
