Letter

ATKINSON, United States Consular Agent to Charles Francis Adams, September 13, 1867

Mr. Atkinson to Mr. Adams

Sir: Referring to mine of the 4th instant, I have now to enclose a letter from Messrs. Rollit & Son, solicitors, reporting the result of the examination of the prisoner Hoffman.

I also enclose copy of correspondence, giving the information obtained at Bremerhaven respecting this man.

I regret that I am not able to carry this matter further, but have done my best; and I trust that the action taken here will have a tendency to prevent further attempts of a similar nature.

I have the honor, &c,

HENRY J. ATKINSON, United States Consular Agent.

His Excellency Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
