Please to present my respects to our friends Trumbull and Jay and believe me with sincere esteem, Dear Sir, Your faithfull friend JNO. SLOSS Hobart. JAY TO PRESIDENT WASHINGTON. London, 29th October, 1794. Dear Sir : I have been honoured with yours of the 5 September ; want of leisure constrains me to be concise. I am authorized by Lord Grenville to assure you in the most explicit terms that no instructions to stimulate or promote hostilities by the Indians against the United States have been sent to the King's officers in Canada. I am preparing an official representation to him on this subject and he will give me an official answer to it, but as this cannot be done in season to forward by this vessel (for letters after this day will be too late to go by her) his Lordship was permitted to make this informal communication to you for your satisfaction. I am to lay before him a statement of the evidence relative to the interference complained of, to the end that it may be sent to Canada and strict enquiry made into the truth of the allegations and facts in question. They would have been done sooner, but for reasons which shall be explained to you. The Treaty is drawing to a conclusion, and unless some difficulties yet to be removed
