This memorandum explains the facts surrounding the case of John Mitchell, a naturalized citizen born in Turkey. After living in New York City for many years, Mitchell returned to Turkey in 1906 and was made to surrender his passport and renounce his citizenship. The memorandum states that a note has been added to Mitchell’s naturalization papers so that proper action can be taken if he returns to the United States.
