DUKE DECAZES TO MR. WASHBURNE.
Versailles, December, 1874.
Mr. Minister: I have the honor herewith to send yon, in compliance with the desire expessed by yon, a statement of the names and addresses of the Lafayette family, together with their degrees of relationship to the general. I thought I could not do better, in order to obtain this information, than to address Mr. O. de Lafayette, a deputy in the National Assembly, and, in transmitting it to me, he has begged me to express the gratitude felt by the Lafayette family in consequence of the adoption of the resolution by the Congress of the United States which you were pleased to bring to my notice.
Accept the assurances, &c.
- DECAZES.
- Mr. Washburne, Minister of the United States.
