No. 382.
Señor Ubico to Mr. Blaine.

[Translation.]

Sir: During the month of September last I received instructions from my government to place in your excellency’s hands the paper which I now have the honor to inclose.

The painful circumstances in which your excellency was placed by reason of the late great national calamity have prevented me from transmitting this document to your excellency sooner.

I reiterate, &c.,

A. UBICO.
