Title
Complaints Relative to Mr. Parish, Our Consul at Hamburgh
Description
Although he questions the merits of the complaints by the French Directory regarding John Parish as Consul at Hamburgh, Hamilton recommends that Parish be superseded with a kind letter to him. It is not worth antagonizing the French government over such a trivial matter.
