Treasurer Latimer to the Wine Licence Commissioners. By your
instructions you are not to let licences for a term but to be
terminable on a year's notice on either part. You find this a
discouragement as some persons insist upon a certain term.
The opinion of the Customs Commissioners has been taken
hereon "in regard that the chief business that is to be considered
in the regulating the letting of wine licences is the
improvement of His Majesty's revenue arising by the
importation of wine." You are hereby authorized to let
licences for three years certain and on particular occasions for
seven years or longer, not exceeding 11 years, "but this latitude
you are not to make use of but on extraordinary occasions."

Treasurer Latimer to the Sub-[Commissioners for Prizes]. I
have seen yours of the 21st inst. to the Customs Commissioners
desiring them to send down an officer to take an account of
the goods that were seized between decks in the Dutch East India
prize "Papenburgh," by the French seamen, before the ship
came into the river (being goods which the French mariners, who
entered the prize, found between decks [and] belonging to them),
which you say you have direction to let them take away upon
paying Custom. I wonder I should not be acquainted with
such directions and from whom they come. As the case is
extraordinury and the French seamen are not permitted to
come up to make an entry, being commanded to go back to the
fleet, I have consented to it. This taking account of goods

upon this extraordinary occasion. Nothing is to be taken out
