Letter from Governor John Wood of the Isle of Man to the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, dated 14 March 1772, requesting immediate payment of £1000 against his overdue salary of over £1300. Wood notes that Receiver General Lutwidge had advised in October and November 1771 that he awaited Treasury directions for payment, but no response was received. The letter demonstrates post-Revestment administrative friction and salary payment difficulties faced by the Governor.
