Congratulations Lt. Bush.
I trust that I and the rest of the Board of the Admiralty will appreciate and commend your Despatch when it is delivered. The Semaphore station on the Admiralty building has been alerted and is ready to receive your communication.

The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
