Sir:

Please find herewith a bill of landing and a list of contents of the sixteen boxes and sixteen pieces, which you report to have received, Comprising and containing the lantern for Cape Foulweather Light House.

You will see that all the rafters and the rods were contained in box No 6. The sixteen lanter posts were contained in boxes 10, 11, 12, & 13.

As theses boxes were received it is supposed that there must have been a miscount, and that you will find all of the above mentioned pieces.
