The third of August, 1745

Dear Lords of the Board of Warfare,

''It is on this day, the third of August, in the year of our Lord, 1745, that I have a most urgent request that I bring upon you with the utmost respect. It occured to me just earlier this morning that the Royal Marines have been out of commission for quite some time now, and I intend to bring them back into action, persay. Of course, there would be changes in the new Marines, e.g. we would stay in the Honourable Lord Goldtimber's guild British Black Guard instead of transferring to a new guild. I await your answer,''

Most respectfully,

Lieutenant Colonel the Honourable Jonathan Lawford
