- Abstract
- Happy to hear of his arrival in Spain. Since he knew that the Confederacy sailed on October 28th, he had nearly despaired of hearing from him again. Responds to Jay's advice concerning bill of exchange drawn by Jay on Franklin, and orders Jay to pay Mr. William Carmichael the sum of 1800 livres. Credit for Jay has been established with one Marquis d'Y randa and a letter of introduction is enclosed. Yranda may be of other assistance to Jay, and is a valuable friend and acquaintance. This Yranda seems to be a different person from Count D'Aranda, then Spanish ambassador to France.
