IN Gentlemen--In the hour Of distress il is cansol
ing to know, that those with whom we have been
ln the habit OF assocating, sympathize with US in
our grief. In no country, not even In our own ma
tiye land, could have hoped under such an aflc-
Zion, for sympathy more aHeciionate, or kindness
more generous, than has been manifested, both by
pur own countrymen, and by the government and
Inhabitants Of this place.-Our loss is indeed pain
aul one-one that be restored or forgotten
1t is, however, alienation to know that all the
#Fespect and honors which generous nation could
kbeslow, were most freely granted to the deceased
bead of our family and it is pride, well our
Happiness, to feel that he was in some degree worthy
Ito receive them.
n To you, Gentlemen of the Committee, and,
Through you, to the American Gentlemen in this
#place, permit me to say, that this is only another
proof of that kindness towards our family, which has
X often before been exhibited, and whose genuneness
has never been doubted. Accept from the family
the assurance of their warmest gratitude, and be-
Aeve that they never, never, can forget the many
&iendly attentions and marks Of respect they have
{eceived during their short stay at Buenos Ayres
S With the highest consideration, remain, Cen
