- Governor Wood's Report #14 to Duke of Atholl, 17 Dec 1763
- Description
- Governor Wood reports to the Duke of Atholl on financial remittances (£1100), administrative appointments, and defends his conduct regarding merchant-magistrate John Taubman's appointment as Deemster. Taubman's dual role as merchant and judge becomes a point of contention, foreshadowing later tensions over smuggling and revenue that contributed to the 1765 Revestment.
