Instructs Colonel Daniel Webb about the transportations of troops. Webb is to "take upon [him] the Command of the Forces ordered to embark there (Plymouth), & to proceed in the ship" where they are to be part of the convoy to New York. Expects the quick arrival of Lord Loudoun and Major General Abercombie, but in the meantime, urges Webb to "take upon you the Command in North America, supercede Maj. Genl. Shirley, & do all the Good, & prevent all the Mischief that you can." Noted as a copy in the upper left hand corner. Watermarked with a large nine cm. seal on the first leaf and a smaller seal on the second leaf bearing the letters GR with a crown.
