Letter

Frederick F. Low to True copy, Edw’d B. Drew, June 22, 1871

No. 2.

[Telegram.]

Secretary of State, Washington.

Recent demonstration produced no effect upon negotiations. Nothing can be effected short of the capital. Force insufficient to go there without great risk. If peaceful means fail, shall withdraw and wait instructions.

LOW.

True copy, Edw’d B. Drew.
