[Translation.]
Mr. de Remusat to Mr. Hoffman
Versailles, August 16, 1871.
Sir: I have the honor to inform you that at its session of July 15 last, the society of agriculture of Cher, which had been charged with the distribution of seed-corn to the farmers of that department, victims of war, voted its thanks to the United States of America for the succor which they had so generously sent to our rural population. You will find herewith an extract of the proceedings of the session of July 15, setting forth this vote.
I shall be obliged to you, sir, if you will convey to your Government the sentiment of gratitude expressed by the society of agriculture of Cher.
I have, &c.,
REMUSAT.
