Letter

Hamilton Fish to Bancroft, January 16, 1871

No. 156.
[Telegram.]

Mr. Fish to Mr. Bancroft

Bancroft:

Washburne complains that his dispatches are detained two to three weeks between London and Paris. This is a poor return for his services in behalf of Germans, many hundreds of whom he is protecting and feeding in Paris. Endeavor to have this wrong remedied. We are entitled to prompt communication with our minister.

FISH.
