I have been long and repeatedly indebted for strong
and flattering marks of confidence.
I have the honour to be, with great respect,
Your Excellency's most obedient and humble servant,
John Jay.

•p. q New York, Febuary 22, 1786.
Nine States are not yet represented in Congress,
and therefore the affairs of this department continue
in the same state that they were in at the date of my

to you again. With great and sincere esteem and
regard,
I have the honor to be, dear Sir,
Your most obedient and humble servant
John Jay.
