The Commiflioners
I?OR carrying into cffcA the £xth article of the
treaty of amity,cemmcjit a«d navigation, con
cluded between his Britannic majtfty and the U'- itca.
Sfcitcs <;f America, en th£ i«jthday of November,
1?94> having this day copftituted tVe.r Board, —
pursuant and agreeahiy (© the said treaty, do here
by give notice, that they arc ready to proceed to
business accordingly; atfd they desire that all claims
lender the said article (which so far asthe fame de
' Icril.es the cafe# thereby provided for, is hereunto
annexed) may be lodged with their Sec retary with
out delay. ♦
Theviurthcr defitethat all such claims may not
only state in what manner the fevers! cafe* come
within the dcfcription of thc.faid article, but .alio
especially fct forth .he feature of the evidence >y
which claimants refpe&ivcly undertake tolub
ftantiatc the fame.
from the said article,
u Whereas it is alledgcd by divers Britifll mer
.4l chants, and others his majeftj *s fubjeds, that
" debts to a'confid.Table amount, which were bona
" fide contra&ed, befcre the peace, still remain
lt owing to them by Citizens or inhabitants of the
44 United States; and that by the operation of va
•• rioos lawful impediments, since the pence, not
M only the full recovery of the said debts has been
" delayed, but alio the value and security thereof
" have been in fevtrU instances impaired and lefT
" en#d, so that by the ordinary course of judicial
M proceedings, the Eritifh creditors cannot now
" obtain and actually have and receive full and
" adequate compensation for the lofft s and dama
" ges which tuey hive thereby fuf ained: It is a
*• greed that in all such cases where full compenfa
" tiou for such losses and damages cannot for what
u ever rcufon be a&uilly obtained, had and recei
" ved by the said creditors in the ordinary course
" of justice, the United States will make fall and
" complete compensation for the fame to the said
" creditors : but it is diftin&ly underf r ood, that
" this provision is to extend to such losses only as
" have beenoccafioned by the lawful impediments
" aforefaid, arid is not to extend to losses occafion
u ed by such insolvency of the debtors or other
" causes, as would equally have operated to pro
-44 duce such loss, if the said impediments had not
44 existed ; nor to such losses or damages as have
44 been occasioned by the manileft delay, ornegli
-44 gencc, or wilful omission of the claimant."
