My Lord: I have just been called from my bed to receive your note, dated the 30th, putting me in possession of another form of a draught Article which Her Majesty’s Government would be prepared to accept if adopted by the Government of the United States.
I will hasten to communicate your note and the draught to Mr. Fish by telegraph, so that they may reach Washington at the earliest possible hour for consideration there.
I am, my Lord, with the highest consideration, your Lordship’s most obedient servant,
