Jear Your favor Of the 2Afh of Maren Wfis TI
ten in cypher; never got to my hands Hntii Jhe lUtn
instant at Mount Vernon; nor were the contents 6f
it known to me until my arrival in this city On the
2fs For the iHfotmatlo contained IN II, and your
attention thereto, offer yotl my best thanks
/ Having no clue by which to discover the faes &lf
very much at a loss to conjecture by what means
private letter of me written 10 friend, and sens
BY an american veasel should have got into te nands
| OF the French Directory shall readily acknowledge,
however tlas the one you aude to, directed t1 Mr.
Gouv'r Norris was d long and confidential one, but
deny that there Is anything contained IN it that the
French Government could take exception to, unless
the expression Of an ardent wish that The United
States might remain In peace with al tie too5fdy
taking no part In the disputes Of any part Of IL
should have produced this effect Giving it aa my
further opinion that the sentiments Of the mass Of the
citizens IN tllis country were if, unison with mine.
Confidential as tie letter was expected to be, I
have DO objections to its being seen BY a,sy body and
COPY thereof wien there il press one now before
me in which discover no expression that In the eye
Of iiterality and candour wouid be deemed objection
able. -G1 $4I I3554S5 l54 Al @ "a
