qUeSted a body of land forces to ,be sent 'row Vin-
Lind, with a view of taking possession of the Island
East Raga, which would effectually command the
harbour ; but as the enemy have been occupied in
placing it in the best state of- defence, it is doubtsul
if a descent upon the Island could be el:Etctett. I beg
to assure their LordAiips that every endeavour will
be practised with .the force under my order*, jointly
