Letter
Sargent to Consul Gaedeke, March 24, 1883
[Inclosure 2 in No. 135.]
Mr. Sargent to Consul Gaedeke.
Legation of the United States, Berlin, March 24, 1883.
Sir: I inclose to you a copy of a letter from Mr. Emile Neignouret, which speaks of some cases of trichinosis from eating pork, which have recently occurred at the fortress at Tilsit. The question of the exclusion or admission of American pork products is now being agitated here and in France; and you will much oblige me, and do the United States a service, if you will ascertain and inform me promptly if these cases of sickness, referred to in the inclosed, exist; and, if so, whether the pork was of American or other production.
Very respectfully,
A. A. SARGENT.
