Letter

David A. Russell to Charles Francis Adams, May 19, 1864

[Untitled]

Sir: With reference to your letter of the 22d of February last, I have the honor to state to you that I am informed by the secretary of state for the colonies that it appears from reports which have been received from the governor of Bermuda that the steamer Will-o-the-Wisp had left that port without having done any illegal act so far as is known, or having given cause for any interference on the part of the authorities.

I have the honor to be, with the highest consideration, sir, your most obedient, humble servant,

RUSSELL.

Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
