Lord Lyons to Earl Granville

Bordeaux, January 26, 1871. (Received January 31.)

My Lord: I have the honor to transmit to your lordship herewith a letter which I have written to Mr. Blount, 3, Rue de la Paix, Paris, who has, as your lordship has just done me the honor to inform me, been appointed Her Majesty’s counsel in that city. It contains a list of some pressing applications which have been made to me respecting persons and property in Paris, and which I desire to recommend to Mr. Blount’s attention.

I shall be much obliged if your lordship will direct the letter to be sent to Paris in the most expeditious manner. It is open, and there is no objection to its being forwarded in that state, and submitted, if necessary, to the inspection of any French or German authorities.

I have, &c.,

LYONS.

I am, &c.,
