L. Ethéart to Bassett, June 8, 1872
[Inclosure 11 in No. 131.—Translation.]
Mr. Ethéart to Mr. Bassett.
Department of State of Foreign Affairs, Port au Prince, June 8, 1872.
Sir: I had the honor to receive your dispatch of the 7th instant, acknowledging the receipt of the one which I addressed to you on the 5th.
The satisfactory thought in which you leave my government, in announcing to it that your Government will accept the expression of regret that I conveyed to you in reference to the Jastram affair, imposes upon me the duty of informing you that orders have been transmitted to the authorities of Saint Marc, to the end that the American consular agent shall be treated with all the respect due to his official position.
Be pleased to accept, Mr. Minister, the renewed assurance of my high consideration.
L. ETHÉART.
