Letter
Foster to Hamilton Fish, May 26, 1876
No. 215. Mr. Foster to Mr. Fish.
Legation of the United States, Mexico, May 26, 1876. (Received June 14, 1876.
No. 409.]
Sir: General Cortina, who has been a prisoner on parole in this city for some months past, has recently escaped and joined the revolutionists. In the present disturbed state of the country, it is to be feared that he may return to the Rio Grande frontier and again become a source of annoyance to the Texas border.
I inclose a copy and translation of his pronunciamiento, dated at a village within five miles of this city.
I am, &c.,
JOHN W. FOSTER.
