Captain Furneaux to Captain Cook
Captain Furneaux to Captain Cook.
There being no master-at-arms warranted for his Majesty's sloop under my command, should be much obliged if you will be pleased to give William Carr (belonging to the said sloop) an order to act as such, being a person every way qualified to act in that station.
I am, &c.,
Tobs. Furneaux.
