Mr. Alexander Hostler applied to the committee to have their advice concerning a ship called the Clemantine, which was coming to his address from London, commanded by Dick Wier, which is lost on the middle ground near the Bar of the River. At the same time Mr. Hostler delivered to the committee, an Invoice of sundry stationary goods shipped on board the said vessel, which he requested the committee to take also into consideration and direct him what may be done with the said ship, stores and materials and stationary goods.

Ordered, That it is the opinion of this committee that the vessel, with her stores and materials may be legally sold without any breach being made in the General Association, but as the stationary goods are landed at Brunswick, this committee think they don't come under their direction.
