- Title:
- Letter No. 97: Rawson Hart Boddam, Robert Sparks and Richard Church, Public Department at Bombay Castle, to Edward Galley, Resident at Bushire
- Scope & Content:
-
This letter acknowledges the receipt of Edward Galley's letter of 10 December 1786, which was delivered by the Scorpion Snow on 5 January 1787. The letter reports several changes to the structure of the Presidency and accepts Galley's resignation. The letter includes the following enclosures:
- Copies of extracts from the Honourable Company's commands (dated 7 April 1786 and received 28 October 1786 from Fort St George);
- Copies of additional letters from 28 April 1786, which include a copy of the commission appointing Rawson Hart Boddam both as President and Governor of Bombay and as Commander-in-Chief of the forces under his Presidency, and a copy of a document revoking an earlier commission which had appointed Brigadier General Lawrence Nilson as Commander-in-Chief of the Presidency's forces.
Of these enclosures, only the extracts from the Company's commands are present, and they appear to be incomplete.
