June 9, 1870.
Hon. Hamilton Fish,
Secretary of State.
Sir:
Your letter under date of yesterday enclosing a telegram from the U. S. Marshal of California relative to the proceedings of the master of the British ship "William Wilson" has been received. I do not find any thing in the communication which, I think, requires any action by your Department, and I will so inform the Marshal.
Very respectfully,
E. R. Hoar,
Attorney General.
the ship "Wm Wilson"
