Report of Privy Council of Gr. Br. relative to US.
A Report of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council … on the commerce and navigation between his Majesty’s Dominions, and the Territories belonging to the United States of America. 28th January, 1791, reprinted in Collection of interesting and important reports and papers on the navigation and trade of Great Britain, Ireland, and the British Colonies in the West Indies and America [London, 1807]; see also Note 133 of Editorial Note "Commercial and Diplomatic Relations with Great Britain" (http://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/01-18-02-0113-0001; PTJ 18:269)
Abstract of do. [Report of Privy Council of Gr. Br. relative to US.]
"Three copies of TJ’s Abstract have been found: (1) MS, 24 pages, in Remsen’s hand, except for the words in caption in italics (supplied) which were interlined by TJ (MHi: AM); (2) Tr of the foregoing, which incorporates without interlineation the words supplied by TJ (DLC: Washington Papers); (3) PrC of MS, which also contains TJ’s interlined words attributing authorship to Hawkesbury (DLC: TJ Papers, 64: 11159–82). From this it would appear that TJ prepared MS for the President; that Washington, after causing Lear to retain a copy of it, sent it to Adams. There is no evidence that Washington shared it with other heads of departments. TJ, of course, kept the press copy for his own use and may have made another from MS for Madison" (from Note 131 of Editorial Note on "Commercial and Diplomatic Relations with Great Britain" (http://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/01-18-02-0113-0001; PTJ 18:283)
