Laird Brothers to Captain Inglefield, R. N., H. M. S. Majestic.
Sir: Referring to our letter of the 14th instant, we beg to inform you that we intend to open our dock, in which El Monnassir now lies, on Thursday morning next, at about 7 o’clock, and also on Saturday morning, at about 9 o’clock.
On Thursday the El Monnassir will not be moved out of dock, but on Saturday she will be taken outside the gates to allow the Holyhead steamer Alexandra to pass out; after which she will be hauled into dock again, and the caisson will be immediately put into its place.
We are, sir, your obedient servant,
Captain Inglefield, R. N., H. M. S. Majestic.
Note.—We shall be glad to have an acknowledgment of the receipt of this as soon as convenient.
LAIRD BROTHERS.
