No. 182. Mr. Angell to Mr. Evarts.

No. 14.]

Sir: Mr. John F. Wilbur, of Germantown, Pa., has written me, as he says, by the advice of the Assistant Secretary of State, asking what are the rights of a foreign author to his publications in this country, and also whether a resident here can represent the author and so protect his rights.

As other Americans may desire information on the subject, I herewith communicate to you my answer to him.

I have, &c.,

JAMES B. ANGELL.
