For the better support of this hospital every seaman in the royal navy and in the service of the merchants pays 6_d._ a month. This is stopped out of the pay of all sailors, and delivered in at the Six penny Receiver’s office on Tower hill. And therefore a seaman who can produce an authentic certificate of his being disabled, and rendered unfit for the sea service, by defending any ship belonging to his Majesty’s British subjects, or in taking any ship from the enemy, may be admitted into this hospital, and receive the same benefit from it, as if he had been in his Majesty’s immediate service. There are at present near 2000 old or disabled seamen, and an hundred boys, the sons of seamen, instructed in navigation, and bred up for the service of the royal navy: but there are no out-pensioners, as at Chelsea. Each of the mariners has a weekly allowance of seven loaves, weighing sixteen ounces each; three pounds of beef; two of mutton; a pint of pease; a pound and a quarter of cheese; two ounces of butter; fourteen quarts of beer, and 1_s._ a week tobacco money: the tobacco money of the boatswains is 2_s._ 6_d._ a week each; that of their mates 1_s._ 6_d._ and that of the other officers in proportion to their rank. Besides which, each common pensioner receives once in two years, a suit of blue cloaths, a hat, three pair of stockings, two pair of shoes, five neck cloths, three shirts, and two night caps. This hospital has about 100 Governors, composed of the nobility, great officers of state, and persons in high posts under the King. The principal officers of the house, with their annual salaries, are: The Governor £1000 Lieutenant Governor 300 Treasurer 200 Three Captains, each 200 Six Lieutenants, each 100 Two Chaplains, each 100 A Physician and Surgeon, 200 each A Clerk of the cheque 100 Auditor 100 GREENWICH _alley_, Brickhill lane.
