Additional Description

Note

This note to Grant speaks of an offical policy that the U.S. government will brook no support for Maximillian's government and will support the liberal factions instead. The note also speaks of Maximillian going over to the church faction, but that the church faction doesn't have as much money in Mexico as it used to have.
