Of your personal character, which the whole world
acknowledges and which place you in promi
ncnt position among the successors of the illustri-

to maintain the good understa nding between both
Governments; and having had, on former occa-

| terrain higher appreciation than for Peru; and
trust that there is nothing in the present relations

The maxim of this Government is universal and
exact justice to all, and it will knowingly do

between Peru and the United States can be dis
turbcd. '''
