Two letters from Governor John Wood of the Isle of Man to the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, dated 14 March 1772, requesting payment of arrears of salary (£1,300+) and drawing bills on the Treasury for £1,000. The letters reveal post-Revestment financial dysfunction, with revenues diverted to harbour improvements and remitted to London, leaving civil establishment personnel unpaid. Also includes a 1768 bill for £1,400 showing Wood's persistent payment difficulties.
