Letter

Charles Francis Adams to William H. Seward, April 14, 1868

Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward

No. 1571.]

Sir: I have the honor to transmit, at the desire of the writer, a letter addressed to me by Colonel Nagle, at Dublin.

I have written to him in reply to apprise him that on my last visit to Lord Stanley, when I made a representation of his case, he informed me that it was the intention of the government to bring him to trial at Dublin at the next assizes. If they should fail to do so, my opinion is that he will then be liberated.

I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,

CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.

Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
