United States and France Correspondence and Delayed Indemnity
Extracts from letters between the United States and French officials show frustration over France’s delay in paying indemnities due under the 1831 treaty. The President and Secretary of State emphasize good faith, with France insisting it will hasten actions within constitutional limits. The exchange discusses timing for presenting the law to the French Chambers and potential early reconsideration of measures if progress continues.
