Scope and content
Thank you very much for your letter asking me to round up all French personnel in my territory, arrest them and then send them to you before they manage to escape. In fact they had all left my territory before your letter arrived. I was aware of your concern about their presence here but my staff would not let me take any action against them as they feel threatened sometimes by English and sometimes by the Dutch. As for as your request that I should cut off all means of supply to the French and not let them employ any porters to carry their goods is concerned, I will need a force of a thousand or two thousand men to implement this scheme. As I do not have such a force to spare, I will be grateful if you could help in this respect. -- Another, contemporary translation of the contents is CR8/1, entry no. 247.
