Letter

Henry S. Sanford to Monsieur Hardy de Beaulieu, Representant de Peuper, April 30, 1865

Mr. Sanford to M. de Beaulieu

My Dear Sir: I write to thank you for initiating in the House of Representatives, yesterday, the expression by it of its horror and regret at the last rebel atrocity which has brought to an untimely end our loved Chief Magistrate. I could not doubt that the national representatives of liberal Belgium would give public token to its appreciation of this crime, and of its sympathy for a sister nation, and I thank you again for having elicited it.

Yours truly,

H. S. SANFORD.

Monsieur Hardy de Beaulieu, Representant de Peuper, &c., &c.
