[While secretary of legation in Madrid, Mangourit 
sent to Paris in installments a diary of the Franco-Spanish 
negotiations. This "diary" is to be found in these volumes, 
and is particularly interesting. Mangourit insisted that 
Perignon demand La. He seems to have been the back-bone 
of the legation; although on bad terms with Perignon, he 
had the confidence of the ministry in Paris. He refers 
frequently to his residence in America as consul at Charles- 
ton.]
