Hargons, P.A., Washington, D.C., to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1852 May 28
Scope and Contents
Hargons received the number of the Freeman's Journal containing the article on Tehuemtepec. This morning he received another article from his brother which had been taken from this week's Journal, on the same subject. He thanks McMaster for this mark of attention and for the interest, shown by McMaster in a subject to which he, Hargons, has devoted some time. He believes his enterprise is of great national importance, and feels that McMaster's interest in it will advance the public good. He will continue to try to secure the Garay grants. Mr. Daniel Webster's absence suspends Hargons further measures, which will be renewed upon the return of the former in a day or two. Hargons and his friends are preparing for the crisis which is now approaching as Mexican diplomacy is fertile in inventions and unscrupulous inexpedients. He is grateful of McMaster's cooperation. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 1p. 8vo.
