Regarding the arrest of Charles Campbell, a sailor from the "Dale." Campbell, who had deserted McBlair's ship, had been taken prisoner by Goodridge and his men when he was found hiding on a whaling ship. Written from the United States Consulate on Saint Helena. Multiple dockets. One on the verso, signed by W. Carrol, states that Goodridge will do whatever McBlair wishes with the prisoner. Second docket, on last page, seems to be a fragment of a separate note. W. Carrol was the United States Vice-Consul at Saint Helena.
