Article inclusively in that manner and tenor wherein they follow here inserted in the French language may provisionally serve for a Rule and Law and so make way for the perfecting of a larger and fuller Treaty concerning Maritime Commerce between the abovementioned Parties The foresaid Articles follow 26.
