Sir The Hague, 25 May 1784

In dispatching to you the enclosed letters, etc., I have the pleasure of being able to tell you that at this moment the Assembly of Holland is very seriously considering measures toward the conclusion of a treaty with France.1 The definitive peace treaty with England was signed at Paris on the 20th. With the regards of my family joined to my own, I am your excellency’s very humble and very obedient servant
