The Peruvian Appointed Ambassador (Pezet) to the Secretary of State

[Translation²]

Washington, December 17, 1919.

Sir: I have the honor to place in Your Excellency’s hands copies of the autograph letters³ of His Excellency the President of Peru which accredit me Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Peru to the United States of America, as well as those of recall of my distinguished predecessor, Doctor Francisco Tudela.

I am retaining the original of the said letters of credence and of recall in order to deliver them to His Excellency the President of the United States of America in the formal audience which, when his shattered health shall permit, and for whose rapid restoration I offer my sincere prayers, Your Excellency will arrange for me.

Accept [etc.]

F. A. Pezet
