Gentlemen
In consequence of my haveing observd the omission of my Sons name in Swinneys paper, I wrote to him by Thursdays post: to which I have just receivd the inclosd reply.
I send it inclosed for your perusal, & beg leave to submit to your consideration, what are the most proper measures to be taken for correcting the mistake, & at the same time for preserving the date & order of his appointment.
I presume it can only be done by an application to the Lord Lieutenant & by his sending an new corrected list to the War office in which no time should be lost
I am with great respect
Gentlemen
Your faithfull & Obedt Servt
Mattw. Boulton
Messrs. Barker & Unett
I think it material that ye date & order of his appointment should be preservd for many reasons |
