First Relais From the U S to Great Britain
A detailed reminiscence of John Adams presenting his credentials in June 1785 to King George III. The narrative describes the ceremony, the audience, and Adams’s cautious remarks on U S independence, followed by a chaotic anecdote of a Yankee trick and a dramatic tiger hunt tale from India, including a deadly lion encounter and perilous pursuit by Snow’s party.
