[Untitled]
Legation of the United States of America, Constantinople, April 7, 1865.
Sir; I have the honor to reply to your note of the 2d instant, relative to certain alleged proceedings of the American missionaries, and to enclose a communication from the Rev. George Washburn, on the subject.
The facts related in this paper exonerate the American missionaries from the charges preferred against them, and I hope they will be accepted by your Highness as a satisfactory refutation of the accusations of their enemies.
I avail myself of this occasion to renew to your Highness the assurance of my perfect consideration.
E. JOY MORRIS.
His Highness Ali Pacha, Minister of Foreign Affairs,
