Peace Treaty Negotiations With Algiers Reported By Decatur
The documents recount Decatur and Shaler detailing the negotiations with the Dey of Algiers after the capture of Algerine vessels. They describe truce terms, demands for restitution, and the understanding that peace would be maintained by showing naval force in the Mediterranean. The American commissioners outline their mandate to treat on equal terms with the Dey and highlight provisions about tribute and commerce under the treaty.
