The Timber &c pr 2nd Voyage has been sold towards paying the Master & Seamens Wages, Victualling the Vessel &c from Novr last to the present time, the extra expences of the Vessel will not exceed the sum of £500 pr annum. I have no intention of drawing on the Society for any part of that sum, should there be no extra charges none will be charged, and the Society will have credit for the amount of such articles as may from time to time be sent out, which surplus sum will go towards paying the Salaries & provisions to the Settlers. I have stated my [reasons in one of my public Letters for retaining the Active in my own hands.
