"Your kind letter and decoration have
greatly gratiticd myself and the Emperor
William" Ii then goes on to state that the
Popes words that the papacy means to prac-
tice the works of peace first suggested to
Prince Bismarck the idea of seeking the
mediation of his holiness in the Caro-
lines question, and, in Difference to

attest his lively gratitude, highest devotion
and deepest respect for his holiness in the
future.
