4136. JONES (John Paul), Newspaper attacks.—

What the English newspapers said
of remonstrances against Paul Jones being received
into the service, as far as I can learn
from those who would have known it, and
would have told it to me, was false, as is everything
those papers say, ever did say, and ever
will say.—
To Mr. Cutting. Washington ed. ii, 437.
