The excerpt outlines a quarrel between England and Holland over rights to carry contraband to France or Spain under the 1674 treaty and England’s demand that such goods be paid for if loaded in port. It notes Stockton’s mission to Amsterdam for a commerce treaty, English demands on Dutch magistrates, and Dutch proof that Rodney’s ships seized American vessels. It also mentions Lord Cornwallis, Major Ferguson, and court appointments in Britain, plus Dutch ambassadorial talks and royal household preparations.
