Stuart , Minister Resident of Her Britannia Majesty’s Government in Hayti to the British minister, March 15, 1878

[Inclosure 10 in No. 40.—Translation.]

Mr. Carrié to the British minister.

Mr. Minister: I have taken note of the verbal communication you made to me concerning the demand of General Tanis, who desires an interview with the corps diplomatique.

The government regrets that at this stage of military operations against the rebels it cannot allow, at present, any suspension of hostilities.

I have the honor, Mr. Minister, to salute you with the highest consideration.

  • F. CARRIÉ.
  • Mr. Stuart, Minister Resident of Her Britannia Majesty’s Government in Hayti.
