[Memorandum.]

Mr. Burnley to Mr. Seward

With reference to a note from the British legation of the 4th November, and to a reply of the 14th December last, relative to John Warrington, who was then a convalescent patient at the general hospital at Fortress Monroe, the British legation would be glad to be informed upon what terms John Warrington’s discharge can be effected from the United States army, as it is stated that the parents of the young man are willing to give any sum up to fifty pounds to effect his discharge.

This legation would also be glad to be informed what his present address is, with a view of forwarding to him a letter.
