Main text This past December, I learned from private travelers from St. Thomas that Sir Gregor McGregor was thought to be in residence on St. Thomas and I immediately wrote to the commandant as shown on the attached copy, but he had then already left the country/: unspecified attachment No. 2:/.- This circumstance is also reported by me in note to general Morillo dated December 20th, 1816 addressed to the Royal Department for Foreign Affairs in copy by note dated the 27th of December, following. Additionally, I most humbly add assurance for Your Majesty that since my assumption of the supreme command on the islands, the intentions of His Supreme Same have been followed and shall henceforth, be strictly followed and that no cause, based in fact, shall be given any recognized and legitimate government to complain about intercourse with the insurgents. I hope that before the arrival of this most humble report, Your Majesty will have been convinced of the reliability of this assurance by my various notes with attachments to the Foreign Department; and if the necessary caution  is not observed with the greatest anxiety on St. Thomas, the error does not lie in the lack of precise orders and not in lack of attention to every circumstance, which appears suspicious to me. Upon my latest presence I caused to be arrested a for long suspected coffee house host Pierre Trapin, whom the authorities on St. Thomas, despite substantial indications, had pleased to leave on the loose and free. By search of his papers and close examination, enough was discovered to find him guilty of improper connections. The case currently rests with the Superior Court and will be advanced to Your Majesty’s Supreme Court.-
