Letter
Hume Burnley to William H. Seward, December 15, 1864
Mr. Burnley to Mr. Seward
Washington, December 15, 1864.
My Dear Sir: This is what the governor general telegraphed last night:
“The St. Albans men were discharged yesterday, on grounds so absurd that I cannot account for it. Fresh warrants have been issued for their apprehension, and the police are making every effort to prevent their escape.”
Very truly yours,
J. HUME BURNLEY.
Hon. William H. Seward, &c., &c., &c.
