Volume 19 — ITALIAN UNITY AGAIN.
Reading edition
Letter to a Public Meeting at Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, February 21, 1871.

Washington, February 21, 1871.
DEAR SIR,—I cannot be at your meeting, but there will be none among you to rejoice in Italian Unity more than I do. Long has it been a desire of my heart.
May it stand firm against all its enemies, especially its greatest enemy, the temporal autocracy of the Pope!
Faithfully yours,
Charles Sumner.
Felix R. Brunot, Esq., Chairman.
