JACKSON, United States Consul to Vice-Admiral Wellesley, C. B, August 30, 1870

Mr. Jackson to Vice-Admiral Wellesley.

Sir: I perceive it is stated in one of the morning papers of this city that an order has been transmitted from the Canadian authorities prohibiting American fishing vessels from obtaining any supplies in the ports of the British North American provinces. If any such order has been received by your excellency, will you be kind enough to furnish me a copy thereof?

I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,

M. M. JACKSON, United States Consul.

His Excellency Vice-Admiral Wellesley, C. B., &c., &c., &c.
