No. 647.
Mr. Farman to Mr. Evarts.

Agency and Consulate-General of the United States at Cairo,
June 29, 1880. (Received July 24.)

No. 416.]

Sir: I have the honor to inform, you that I sent you on the 12th instant, from Alexandria, the following telegram:

Secretary Evarts, Washington:

Commander Gorringe sailed two o’clock to-day with obelisk. Will call at Gibraltar.

FARMAN.

A telegraphic dispatch received on the 23d instant from the commander from Gibaraltar informed me of his arrival at that place, and that everything was working admirably well. The steamer was in good condition on her departure, and I have no doubt will have arrived in New York before the receipt of this dispatch.

I have, &c.,

E. E. FARMAN.
