Sir: In continuance of former correspondence on the subject of the so-called cattle-tax exacted on exports from Key West, by the Spanish consul there, I have to inclose a copy of a letter from Messrs. McGrew & Small, attorneys of James McKay and other exporters, who have paid such taxes, making a request as to the mode or channel of the promised refunding of said taxes. The adoption of their suggestion lies, of course, with His Majesty’s Government.
I am, &c.,
T. F. BAYARD.
