<Passy, June 6, 1778: We congratulate you on your gallant encounter
with the enemy, and on your safe passage and arrival.
Address yourself and your prize to Mr. Schweighauser at
Nantes; he will help you repair and supply your ship, but you
should exercise the frugality that our distressed circumstances
require.>
