| 7 | 3 | ENE | N | This Morning the Clerk (Mr. Samuel) presented the Boatswain & Carpenters Expence Books to the Master to be Signed, and also the Monthly Books for Aug. & Septr. the whole being Signed by me. The Clerk was then returned with a Certificate for me to Sign, before the Books could, the Purport of which was that he had done nothing amiss during his time on board. As I did not approve of his doing his duty conditionally I sent for him and told him the Consequence when he left me abruptly saying he would not sign the Books upon such conditions. I now ordered the Hands to be turned up. Read the Articles of War, with particular parts of the Instructions relative to the Matter, when this troublesome Man saw his error & before the whole Ships Company signed the Books. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
