Mr. Jean to Mr. Jastram.

No. 40.]

Acoune Jean, Major-General commanding the department of the Artibonite.

Sir: In writing to you my preceding dispatch, to invite you to deliver General Batraville, aîné, to the authorities, I thought that he was under the protection of the American consulate. But knowing now that this general is at citizen Martelly’s, who is a Haytian, I pray you to be so kind as to return me my letter, in order that I may take other steps.

I salute you very cordially,

ACOUNE JEAN.
