Letter
Right Hon. Earl Russell to Charles Francis Adams, April 22, 1863
Lord Russell to Mr. Adams.
Foreign Office, April 22, 1863.
Sir: In acknowledging the receipt of the further letter which you did me the honor to address to me, on the 6th instant, on the subject of the intercepted correspondence, I will merely add that, while entirely assenting to the principles laid down in the authorities to which you refer, I am still unable to perceive their application to any facts which have occurred in this country within the cognizance of her Majesty’s government.
I have the honor to be, with the highest consideration, sir, your most obedient, humble servant.
RUSSELL.
Charles Francis Adams, Esq.
