Budberg to Dix , & c ., & c ., & c, June 10, 1867

[Translation.]

Baron de Budberg to Mr. Dix

Sir: I have made it my business to submit to the Emperor your despatch of June 8th, in which you transmitted to me the address of a large number of your countrymen, on the occasion of the providential issue of the attempt upon the life of his Majesty on the 6th of June.

His Majesty has deeply felt the expression of the good will of the citizens of a country whose sympathies with the Russian people are happily growing stronger and stronger everyday. He directs me especially to thank you for having joined so warmly in this expression.

Have the kindness to inform the signers of the address of the sentiments with which the Emperor has received it, and accept the assurance of my most distinguished consideration.

BUDBERG.

General Dix, &c., &c., &c.
