"Memoir, Correspondence, And Miscellanies, From The Papers Of Thomas Jefferson, Volume 2"

But if they be not sent
back within three months, to be counted from the day of their arrest,
they shall be set at liberty, and shall be no more arrested for the same
cause.
Article X. In cases where the respective subjects, or citizens, shall
have committed any crime, or breach of the peace, they shall be amenable
to the judges of the country.
Article XI. When the said offenders shall be a part of the crew of a
vessel of their nation, and shall have withdrawn themselves on board
the said vessel, they may be there seized and arrested by order of the
judges of the country: these shall give notice thereof to the Consul
or Vice-Consul, who may repair on board, if he thinks proper: but this
notification shall not, in any case, delay execution of the order in
question. The persons arrested shall not afterwards be set at liberty,
until the Consul or Vice-Consul shall have been notified thereof; and
they shall be delivered to him, if he requires it, to be put again
onboard of the vessel on which they were arrested, or of others of their
nation, and to be sent out of the country.
