Letter

William H. Seward to Charles Francis Adams, September 25, 1867

Mr. Seward to Mr. Adams

No. 2060.]

Sir: Your despatch of the 13th of September, No. 1447, has been received, and the proceeding on your part therein mentioned is approved.

It is somewhat remarkable, as a coincidence, that the impression communicated to you by Lord Stanley is, in sentiment and to the letter, the same which I announced to Sir Frederick Bruce, at Auburn, upon reading the letter from Lord Stanley, the reply to which was contained in my 2037.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,

WILLIAM H. SEWARD.

Charles Francis Adams, &c., &c., &c.
