Summary
Floridablanca has received Jay's three last letters. Regarding the privateer detained in the Canaries, Floridablanca can say nothing until he receives further information. Regarding the new bills of exchange which have been presented by Mssrs. Joyce, Floridablanca must consult with the King and with the other Ministers before he can give a positive answer. Mssrs. Joyce must wait some days longer for the answer in question. Concerning Jay's plan by which Spain will accept responsibility for certain sums which Congress will repay by furnishing some vessels, Jay must draw up a clearer picture of his plan. French original and Jay's translation.
