Letter
Charles Francis Adams to Henry Wilding, July 7, 1862
Mr. Adams to Mr. Wilding.
Legation of the United States, London, July 7, 1862.
Sir: I transmit herewith a copy of a note received by me from Lord Russell, in reply to my representation, founded on Mr. Dudley’s letters of the 21st of June to me, respecting Mr. Laird’s gunboat. In accordance with his lordship’s suggestion, I pray you to furnish to the collector of customs, so soon as may be, any evidence which you can readily command in aid of the object designated.
I should be glad likewise to have such evidence made in duplicate, and one copy forwarded to me at the same time for possible use in another way at this point.
I have the honor to be, &c,
CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.
Henry Wilding, Esq., United States Vice-Consul, Liverpool.
