Letter
By the President: T. F. Bayard to Ricardo Becerra, July 3, 1885
No. 218.
Mr. Bayard to Mr. Becerra.
Department of State, Washington, July 3, 1885.
Sir: With reference to the correspondence between this Department and your legation, concerning the brig Ambrose Light, I have the honor to inclose a copy of a letter from the Attorney-General, together with a copy of the report which he incloses from Mr. Root, attorney of the United States for the southern district of New York.
The evidence does not show the transfer of the Ambrose Light to have been performed within United States jurisdiction, as part of a hostile expeditionary movement against Colombia, or in violation of the neutrality laws. (United States Revised States, Title LXVII.)
Accept, &c.,
T. F. BAYARD.
