§ From Frederick Jacob Wichelhausen

2 July 1802, Bremen. “My last respects waited on you the 6th. Janr: last.1 … Inclosed I now do myself the honor, of transmitting you again the semi-annual List of american arrivals at this port, the number of which you will observe is very inconsiderable, the commercial adventures from the United States to this place having greatly decreased since the event of peace.”
