Letter
George P. Marsh to William H. Seward, April 28, 1865
Mr. Marsh to Mr. Seward
No. 117.]
Legation of the United States, Turin, April 28, 1865.
Sir: I have received from the minister of foreign affairs official notice that the office of that ministry will be transferred to Florence on the fifteenth day of May next, but I have been since informed by the secretary general that it is doubtful whether the minister of foreign affairs Will be at that city in person before the end of the month.
It is understood that the King leaves Turin for Florence to-day, but no formal announcement of his change of residence has been made.
I shall remain at Turin until the removal of the public offices actually takes place, and shall then proceed to the new capital.
I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,
GEORGE P. MARSH.
Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State.
