Mrs. Susan Decatur. 41 Letter from Ca])tain Ridgely, relative to the distribution of prize money. Portsmouth, N. H. ? Nov. 14th, 1826. S I have had your letter of the 12th ult, my dear Madam, for some... time, and must plead as my apology for not having given it my more early attention, a multiplicity of duties beyond my control. You ask of me to give my unreserved opinion of "the bill" reported by the Naval Committee, based upon "the same proportions that are prescribed between the commanders and the Lieutenants, &c. &c. &c. in the cases of the Guerriere, Macedonian, and Java," and "that Capt's. Jones, Spence, Crane, and Read, combine in thinking it as equitable a di- vision as could be made in such a case."
