Sir M. H. Herbert to Mr. Hay.

Dear Mr. Secretary: I have just received a telegram from Lord Lansdowne, requesting me to ask you to inform the American agent before the Alaska tribunal that the British agent applies for the production, under paragraph 4 of article 2 of the Alaska convention, of the documents included in the United States case which are mentioned in the inclosed list.

The telegram adds that the British agent could examine them in Washington or make arrangements to photograph the originals.

I gather from the telegram that some further documents are required, but as the sentence relating to them is not quite clear, I have telegraphed for a repetition of it.

I am, dear Mr. Secretary, yours, very truly,

Michael H. Herbert.
[Inclosure.]

Alaska Boundary Commission.

List of documents which the British agent desires to examine in original, or of which he wishes to be allowed to take photographs, under articles 2 and 4 of the Alaska Boundary Convention.
