Letter
Charles Francis Adams to William H. Seward, July 9, 1867
Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward
No. 1404.]
Legation of the United States, London, July 9, 1867.
Sir: In connection with your despatch, No. 1886, of the 10th of December last, I now have the honor to transmit copies of the correspondence which has taken place between myself and Lord Stanley on the subject therein referred to.
It is very clear, from the unsatisfactory nature of the answer, that the act complained of was one of the series which took place in that unfortunate island at the period referred to, no justification for which ever has been or probably ever will be made.
I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,
CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.
Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
