(Circular)

I have the Honor of transmitting to your Excellency a Copy of a Letter from Mr. Adams to the President of Congress of the 22d April 1784, and of a Letter to Mr. Adams from Mr. de St. Saphorin of the 21st. April 1784 together with a Copy of the Paper referred to in the latter.

Your Excellency will perceive from these Papers, that the Bishops of Denmark will confer holy Orders on American Candidates without any Tests which (like those insisted on in England) would be improper for Americans to comply with. I have the Honor to be with great Respect Your Excellency’s Most obedient and very humble Servant
