Lisbon 5 Febry 1802

⟨Sir⟩

I have the honor to enclose a petition made in the Name of the Captains of eight American vessels arrived the 3 Inst: with its translation, done in order to aleveate the Quarantine & which you will see notwithstanding the very favorable information given has no effect in aleveating the oppressive detention.

I shall however in a few days renew my solicitation in hopes of better success & have the honor to be with the greatest respect Sir Your most humble & Obedient Servant

Thomas Bulkeley
