Ihe general agent thinks it his duty to add, (for the a ll

their claims to his charge and management) that all

The Commissioners
TTOR carrying into effedf the sixth article of the
Jl'treaty of amity,commerce and navigation, con
cluded bet we \1 his Britannic majesty and the United
States of America, on the 19th day of November,
1794, having this day conftitutcd their Board,
pursuant and"agreeably to the said treaty, do here
by giye notice, that they are ready to proceed to
business accordingly ; and they desire that all claims
under the said article (which so far as the fame de
scribes the cases thereby provided for, is hereunto
annexed) may be lodged with their Secretary with
out delay.
They further desire that all such claims may not
or.lyXtate in what manner the fcvcril cases come
within the description of the said article, but alto
fet forth .he nature of the evidence by
which the claimants refpeAively undertake tsfub
ftantiate the fame.
Extrad from the said article,
" Whereas it is alledgcd by divers Eritilh nier- .
« chants and others hi', majefts's fubjeSs, that I
•' debts to a confid. rable amount, which were bona
" fide contracted, before the ftill remain
" owing to them by citizens or inhabitants ot the
" United States; and that by the operation ol va
" rious lawful impediments, since the peace, not
'• only the full recovery of the said debt» has been
" delayed, but also the value and fecunty thereof
" have been in feyeraf instances impaired and jdT
»' ened, so that by the ordinary course of judicial
" proceedings, the Britilh creditors cannot bow
" obtain and a dually have and receive full and
" adequate connpenfation for the losses and datna
« ges which tney have thereby fufiained : It is a
" greed that in all such cases where full compenfa
" tion for such losses and damages cannot for what
'i ever reason be a&u illy obtained, had and recei
" ved by the said creditors in the ordinary court:
" of justice, the United States will make full and
" complete compensation for the fame to the said
« creditors: but it is diftincftly understood, that
11 this provision is to extend to such losses only as
" have been occasioned by the lawful impediments
« aforefaid, and is not to extend to losses occa&on
" ed by such insolvency of the debtors or pthcr
" cairfes, as would equally have operated to pro
" duce such loss, if the said impediments had not
« existed •, jior to such losses or damages !i» have
" lieea occasioned by the manifeft delay, or negli
<• or wilful omission of the claimant.
