No. 845]

Sir: Information of a trustworthy character having reached this Department that one Ezra D. Winslow, charged with the commission of the crime of forgery in the State of Massachusetts, is now under arrest in London, awaiting extradition, I have to request you, pursuant to the provision of the tenth article of the treaty of 1842, between the United States and Great Britain, to make application to the proper authorities for the delivery of said Winslow into the custody of Mr. Albion P. Dearborn, who is duly authorized to receive the criminal, and to bring him back to the United States for trial.

Mr. Dearborn, who is provided with the necessary papers in the case, sails at once for London, and will present himself at the legation.

I am, &c.,
