1. This account is filed with the accounts numbered 1, 2, and 3 in the PCC, but JA’s failure to mention it specifically to Livingston may mean that it was not enclosed with this letter. For Dumas’ efforts and expenditures in the purchase of the United States legation at The Hague, see his letters to JA of 5, 14, 18, 23, and 25 Feb.; 5 March (vol. 12:226–229, 236–237, 239–240, 261–264, 270–274, 291–295); and [post 2 May], above.
