Letter
Arthur H. Gordon to Sir F. Bruce, May 11, 1865
[Untitled]
Fredericton, May 11, 1865.
Sir: I have the honor to transmit to you copies of a paragraph from the speech with which I lately opened the session of the provincial legislature, and of the corresponding paragraphs of the addresses which I have received in reply from the legislative council and house of assembly.
Should you consider it right so to do, I should feel much gratified were you to convey to the United States government the assurance (though an almost needless one) that deep sympathy and profound indignation have been universally excited in this province by the atrocious act recently perpetrated at Washington.
ARTHUE H. GORDON.
Hon. Sir F. Bruce, &c., &c., &c.
