Letter
Right Honorable Earl Russell to Charles Francis Adams, February 21, 1863
Lord Russell to Mr. Adams.
Foreign Office, February 21, 1863.
Sir: I must request you to accept my apologies for the delay which has occurred in acknowledging the receipt of your letter of the 20th ultimo, in which you call my attention to another instance of a claim for the restitution of a vessel, which seems to have been heretofore made by her Majesty’s government under circumstances of a character similar to that of the St. Pierre.
I have the honor to be, with the highest consideration, sir, your most obedient, humble servant,
RUSSELL.
Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
