Letter

Charles R. Lowell to Benjamin H. Barrows, April 26, 1882

[lnclosure 12 in No. 349.]

Mr. Lowell to Mr. Barrows.

Confidential.]

Sir: I have to acknowledge the reception of your two letters of yesterday with accompanying papers.

You will understand, of course, that the money offer I instructed you to make was not intended as an inducement for the prisoner to leave Ireland, but simply as a provision for his expenses to America in case he should be released by the government here.

I am, &c.,

J. R. LOWELL.
