“The First Dragoman of the Russian Embassy to Mahmoud Nedim.A
“My Dear Highness,—I have communicated the observations of your Highness to His Excellency the Ambassador, who has assured us in his reply that he will use his influence to arrest the Herzegovinian insurrection. No one desires more earnestly than ourselves the success of Your Highness’ projects.
“Your Highness may give the necessary assurances to whom they may concern.” (1873).
