Hamilton Fish to Bingham, February 23, 1877
No. 191. Mr. Fish to Mr. Bingham.
Department of State, Washington, February 23, 1877.
No. 276.]
Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt of your dispatch, No. 495, dated 18th January last. It relates to the violation by Japanese officials of the property-rights of certain citizens of the United States who are residing in the Bonin Islands. It would seem from the statement of Mr. Crocker Nye, a copy of which is transmitted with your dispatch, that this is a case calling for prompt reparation by the government of the acts of the Japanese officials on the islands. Your note to Mr. Terashima is approved, and you will continue to give careful attention to the case.
am, &c.,
HAMILTON FISH.
