25083‘Wasp Portsmouth 1st. Decr. 1775.’. Bligh’s entry in the Oxford DNB does not note his service on HMS Wasp to which he was appointed in October 1774. According to one authority the ship ‘saw service out of Passage County Cork Ireland from November 1774. In October 1775 Bligh brought sixty volunteers from Ireland into Plymouth and in June 1776 sailed from Portsmouth to Plymouth with money for the dockyard artificers. Towards the end of August the Wasp arrived off the Devonshire port with ten transports bound for North America and she then sailed for Ireland.’ Built in 1749 the 8-gun sloop the Wasp was sold off by the Royal Navy in 1781. In 1784 under the name Mentor she was a slave ship. Good bold signature on letter of 1p 4to. In fair condition on aged and discoloured paper with wear to corners and closed tear along the two postage folds. Addressed to ‘The Honourable The Principal Officers & Commissrs. of His Majesty’s Navy’ parts of last two word chipped away. Docketed ‘1: Decembr. 1775. / Wasp / Captn: Bligh / Book sent’ and ‘Recd. the above Muster Book / TM / 12 Decr. 1775’. The letter reads: ‘Gentlemen / Yesterday I Lodged at the Clerk of the Checks Office at this Port to be forwarded to your Board One Monthly Book for September & October 1775 for His Majesty’s Sloop the Wasp under my Command which please to Acknowledge the receipt off to Waterford in Ireland as I shall sail for that place in a day or two.

2589117 September 1944. On letterhead of 22 Draycott Place S.W.3 London. See the entry on Admiral Tupper in the Oxford DNB: ‘After the death of his first wife he married second on 24 June 1933 Caroline Maud Abadie 1863-1948 the widow of General Sir Henry Richard Abadie; she was the daughter of Colonel Fanshawe Gostling of the Royal Berkshire regiment.’ 4pp 12mo. On two leaves of blue paper in stamped and postmarked envelope addressed to ‘Mrs. Henderson / c/o Lady Edwina Lewin / Salthrop House / Wroughton / Wilts.’ A long letter in a not entirely straightforward hand. She begins by discussing the recipient’s husband’s improving health she appears to say the handwriting makes the entire transcription doubtful that she ‘has had a dreadful “night mare†time’ over her husband’s health: ‘he began working again at “The Chelsea Reserve W†with Colonel Boyes-Lyon and did too much & had heart attack on July 29th. when I had to take him into the Royal Masonic Hospital for a specialist to attend’. This takes us around half-way through the letter. The second half is no less opaque. 17 September 1944. On letterhead of 22 Draycott Place, S.W.3 [London] unknown
