Wesleyan Ministers and Stewards of Dublin

May it please your excellency, I have the honor to enclose to your excellency a copy of the resolution of sympathy adopted at our late district meeting, and acquiesced in by the Wesleyan church in this country.

Humbly praying that “He by whom kings reign and princes decree justice” may be your excellency’s refuge and strength and bless your great country with peace and prosperity.

I have the honor to be, your excellency’s most obedient servant,

ROBERT G. JONES.

His Excellency the President of the United States, Washington.

P. S.—Enclosed is also the chairman’s letter to your excellency.
