The back page has a letter from the Hague which includes: "...Every one is curious to know what will be done by the States relative to the memorial presented to them by the American agent Mr. Adams; some imagine...some members of the States have expressed themselves in favor of acknowledging the Independence of America, yet it would be very impolite to make any such acknowledgment till the States of America are declared independent by Great Britain..." and a bit more.
