No. 210.
Sir L. West to Mr. Bayard.

Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your note of yesterday, protesting against the action of the officer of the Dominion schooner E. F. Conrad, in forbidding the master of the American schooner Golden Hind to enter the Bay of Chaleur for the purpose of renewing his supply of fresh water at that place.

I have, &c.,

L. S. SACKVILLE WEST.
