William Waldorf Astor to Frederick T. Frelinghuysen, September 16, 1884
No. 238. Mr. Astor to Mr. Frelinghuysen.
Legation of the United States, Rome, September 16, 1884. (Received October 6.)
No. 95.]
Sir: I have the honor to inclose herewith a copy and translation of a note received from the ministry of foreign affairs relating to the demand that the Rev. Father Valentine Teodoro Lanciotti may visit Italy unmolested.
I regret to say that the Italian Government refuses to grant such a permission, and if the reverend father should return to Italy he will be treated as one who has willfully failed to perform military duty and enrolled into the Italian army.
I have, &c.,
WILLIAM WALDORF ASTOR.
