Letter

De Zuylen de Nijevelt to Albert Pike, September 2, 1861

Baron Van Zuylen to Mr. Pike.

Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communications of the 28th of August and of 2d of September.

I hastened to communicate these notes to the minister of the colonies, and I hope to be enabled at an early day, and so soon as the reports of the Governor of Curaçoa respecting the affair of the steamer “Sumter” shall be known to me, to give you a reply upon this subject.

Be pleased, sir, to accept the renewed assurance of my high consideration,

DE ZUYLEN DE NIJEVELT.

Mr. Pike, Minister Resident of the United States of America.
