- Governor Cochrane's Report on Manx Herring Trade and Clergy Payments
- Description
- Report from Governor Basil Cochrane to the Duke of Atholl concerning the audit, clergy salary recoveries (£2658:93.75), and a legal challenge to the herring fishing trade to the West Indies. Cochrane disputes an old Restoration-era Act of Parliament that may prohibit direct export of herrings to the colonies, arguing Manx produce should be freely tradeable to any British plantation.
