Frederick T. Frelinghuysen to Cayetano Romero, October 16, 1884
No. 268. Mr. Frelinghuysen to Mr. Romero.
Department of State, Washington, October 16, 1884.
Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your note of the 9th instant, wherein you report that the Government of Mexico renounces its claim to the ownership of certain islands in the Rio Grande, lately the subject of correspondence with your legation, and to say that the decision of your Government respecting the island of Morteritos, so called, was only what the President and this Department had good cause to expect from the well-known high sense of justice which characterizes the Mexican Government and people.
Accept, &c.,
FRED’K T. FRELINGHUYSEN.
