He gave in connection with negociations with USA 1854 a speech, which Dr. Henry Smith, who were on the spot, reproduced in Seattle Sunday Star many years later in fact 1887, based on his own notes. ... Unfortunately, the famous speech is not what was reproduced by Dr. Henry A. Smith in 1887." Bibliographic and other links, maintained by Per-Olof Johansson.
