Letter

Charles James to Señor Don George Williamson, April 25, 1874

[Inclosure 5 in No. 146 bis.—Telegram.]

Mr. James to Mr. Williamson.

Sir: The Arizona has sailed. I was present and saw everything. The captain used every exertion to prevent the shooting, but some of the passengers fired pistols and mortally wounded Commandante Gonzalez. I used every exertion to prevent the outrage on Mr. Magee. Will send details by mail.

E. JAMES.
