Sir,
Representations entitled to credit touching the execution of the duties of your office, connected with the fact that not a single communication has been received from you, as appears from the files of this office, since your appointment in the year 1800, have induced a revocation of your appointment as Consul at La Guira, and you will accordingly cease to act in that capacity after the receipt of this notice. I am &c
James Madison.
