If it is not accepted by Russia and England, it will work against them. De Neufville is in touch with John Adams concerning the loans. Little progress is bring made at present because the Dutch States and Russia are also try ing to borrow money in Amsterdam, but De Neufville & Son will continue efforts on behalf of the United States.
