Letter from Lieutenant Governor Alexander Shaw to Home Secretary Lord Pelham reporting on the arrival of Irish strangers on the Isle of Man following the 1803 Dublin disturbance (Robert Emmet's rebellion). Shaw describes measures taken to register and examine suspicious arrivals, including several Catholic priests, and requests military reinforcement for Castle Rushen. While post-dating the Revestment by 38 years, this document illustrates the Island's strategic importance in security matters and cross-Irish Sea movements.
