Don Joaquin Zamorano , Consul of Spain to Mr. Zamorano Spanish consul, April 14, 1817

[64]*Mr. McCulloch, collector, to Mr. Zamorano Spanish consul.

Sir: If you can name the vessel and specify any circumstance to warrant the proceeding, immediate attention will be paid to the object by pursuing her course as far as possible.

Allow me to say that if your note just received respects the ship Idas, she was searched by me in consequence of certain suspicions on Saturday evening, and was found without arms, ammunition, or any warlike equipment, and cleared in ballast coastwise.

I am, sir, &c.,

  • J. H. McCULLOCH.
  • Don Joaquin Zamorano, Consul of Spain.
