Letter
Charles Francis Adams to William H. Seward, July 20, 1865
Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward
No. 1017.]
Legation of the United States, London, July 20, 1865.
Sir: Acting under the directions contained in despatch from the department, No. 1456, of the 21st of June, I have obtained through the agency of Mr. Morse, the consul at this place, certain depositions further to show the part taken by the steamer City of Richmond in supplying the steamer Olinde, alias Stonewall, with equipment and crew. Mr. Morse informs me that he has not been able yet to obtain any further evidence from the parties heretofore furnishing testimony, which seems to have been the wish of the government. He is, however, on the watch to find them, and whenever he succeeds he will endeavor to procure it.
I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,
CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.
Hon. William H. Seward, &c., &c., &c.
