Letter

WELLESLEY, Vice-Admiral to Michael M. Jackson, August 31, 1870

Vice-Admiral George G. Wellesley to Mr. M. M. Jackson.

Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of yesterday’s date, and to inform you, in reply, that I have not seen the statement in the morning papers alluded to; and as such an order would probably have been addressed by the Dominion government to its own officers, I can only suggest that an application should be made to the Dominion government for the information required.

I have the honor to be, sir, your very obedient servant,

GEORGE G. WELLESLEY, Vice-Admiral.
