HER MAJESTY'S STEAM VESSEL AVON.
Sheerness, Dec. 10, 1841.
Sir—ln consequence of its having appeared, in several
public papers and shipping lists, that her Majesty's
steam-vessel Avon had been ashore on Flamborough
Head, and had met considerable damage—
May I request you will cause this error to be contra-
dicted in as public a manner as possible ; the fact being
that her Majesty's steam-vessel Driver went ashore on
Flamborough Head, and afterwards put into Shields.
The Avon arrived at Shields on Dec. 2, where she found
the Driver, and left Shields on the 7th, in company
with the Driver, and arrived at Sheerness on the 9th inst.

The reasons for the foregoing statement are, lest any
erroneous reports may be prejudicial to the pilot of the
Avon, Mr. Ranzon, of Hull, with whom lam highly
satisfied.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant,
CHARLES JENKIN, Lieut. commanding.
To the Secretary at Lloyd's, London.
