§ From Louis-Marie Turreau. 13 January 1806. Acknowledges JM ’s letter of 6 Jan. , to which JM attached a copy of his 26 June 1804 dispatch to Pichon.

§ From Louis-Marie Turreau. 11 February 1806, Washington. Official reports confirm what he had discussed with JM in their last meeting. A very large armed ship, the Leander , left New York harbor several days ago. Its apparent destination is Jacmel, but its cargo and the sort of men on board suggest another. An adventurer by the name of Miranda is aboard, and a number of lost souls accompany...

Felix de Beaujour, commissary general of French commercial relations, has provisionally named Honoré Felix de Douzy vice commissary of Rhode Island, a position vacated by the resignation of Mr. Lequinio.

Is required after the formal request of the marqués de Yrujo, and despite what JM has told him about JM ’s communications with Yrujo, to send JM this letter that Yrujo wrote and which should be of great interest. Has no doubt that JM will be impressed with the frankness and candor that Turreau will attach to all the steps to which he...
