            miscarried informing them of his peaceful intentions and desire to let American ships
            trade in Moroccan waters under their own flag the same as the English. Sends Jay a
            number of papers on the matter. If the emperor's ideas are acceptable, American ships
            should let Moroccan ships pass unmolested.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
