- Summary
- Thanks John Jay for his interest in the release of his father. The urgent demands which America is making at this court, their reiterated complaints of the enormous expenses of the war, and the inadequacy of our pecuniary resources here make it essential that the means of paying the bills in question would be negotiated in Spain if possible. Encloses letters for John Jay to forward to America.
