Summary
Regarding the case of the French offenders, Varick did not know until he received John Jay's letter "in what manner these worthless rascals ... suffered their punishment." "If any Frenchman in public service shall again become an object of corporal punishment, for an offence against our laws, he shall not, while suffering such punishment, be permitted to wear the national cockade."
