Thirteenth clause of the Treaty of Utrecht (1713) jn-esents in clear and brief terms the whole matters in dispute, and those who wish to understand the French Shore fpiestion should never lose si...ght of it. This treaty was drawn up in English am. 1 French and then translated into Latin, in which language it was signed, so that this version is official and authoritati\-e. Here is a correct translation of the 13th clause from the Latin text : — " The Island called Newfoundland, with the adjacent islands, shall from this time forward Ijelong wholly to Great Britain ; 190 IXTEUXATIOXAf, TREATIES. and to that end the town and fortress of Placentia, and whatever other places in the said island are in the possession of the French, - shall be yielded and given up ■within seven months from the ratifications of this treaty, or sooner if possible, by tlie Most Christian King, his heirs and snccessors, to those who have a commission from the Queen of Great Britain for that purpose.
