Baron Otto von Blome to Benjamin Franklin, November 21, 1783
Baron Otto von Blome informs Benjamin Franklin that the Danish ship Providentia, seized by an American privateer despite flying a Danish flag, was only partially compensated after a Boston maritime court ruled in 1782. The Danish envoy asserts the ship's owners have the right to full restitution and damages for the unlawful seizure and confiscation of cargo claimed as British property.
