Sirs,
I have the honour of conveying a message to His Majesty Frederick William III on behalf of the Consuls of the French Republic and the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who send their fairest greetings and best wishes to His Majesty and the Prussian nation as a whole. They ask, that in light of diplomatic discussions between the French Republic and His Majesty the King of Prussia pertaining to diplomatic occurrences of late, that His Majesty request that his Minister of Foreign Affairs hasten to make contact with the French Minister to Prussia for the successful and swift conclusion of the convention presently proposed between our two nations, in order that we might better preserve the faithful and good relations between us.
The nation of France eagerly awaits your reply, and shall anticipate its positive demeanour as emblematic of the respect and good faith our diplomats have, at every stage, demonstrated towards each other.
cordialement
Jean Victor Marie Moreau
Général de Division, Armée du Rhin
