Letter
William Hunter to Joseph A. Wright, October 29, 1866
Mr. Hunter to Mr. Wright.
No. 49.]
Department of State, Washington, October 29, 1866.
Sir: Herewith I enclose a transcript of a letter dated at Dresden, September 30, 1866, and addressed to the Mayor of Philadelphia, (who has referred it to this department,) from Frederick Boettener, who is now compulsorily serving in the Prussian army. As you are already familiar with the facts in this case, I deem it unnecessary, in transmitting to you the accompanying paper, to do more than instruct you to use your good offices in behalf of Mr. Boettener, whose release it is hoped you may now be able to effect.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
W. HUNTER, Acting Secretary.
Joseph A. Wright, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
