"His Excellency the Bashaw [of Tripoli] is perfectly satisfied with your election of Morocco for your future residence." Davis also addresses Caramanli's desire to reign in Derna: "the present Bey of Derna was unwell and would actually leave the province in the course of forty days, and that as the country could not be left without a government it was necessary that some person should be sent within two months." Davis is introducing an American legation to discuss this option with the ex-Bashaw. Scribal copy bound together with GLC 2794.118, .120-.124, .128-.133, .135-.145 and .147-.151. (Letter #10 in bound volume.)
