- Abstract
- Committee's proposed draft of a reply to the two French officers: Congress has delayed in replying to their memorials in hope that new circumstances might enable the United States to make use of their talents. However, these circumstances have not arisen and the Congress must regretfully refuse the offer of their service sand deny them commissions in the Continental Army.
