Lerdo de Tejada to F. Glennie, August 30, 1867
[Translation.]
Señor Lerdo de Tejada to Mr. Glennie.
Department of Foreign Relations, Mexico, August 30, 1867.
Sir: In your communication of the 27th instant, relating to the property of an intestate British subject, you ask if the government of the republic refuses to recognize you as British consul.
You are hereby informed that the judge in the case mentioned was ordered by the department of justice not to allow you to intervene as consul.
This was done because the government of the republic had determined to have no official intercourse with any agent of the governments abroad that had acknowledged the usurper of foreign intervention.
I am, respectfully, your very obedient servant,
S. LERDO DE TEJADA.
Mr. F. Glennie, &c., &c., &c., Mexico.
