ISA SPOKE TO ME THIS MORNING TO SAY HE THOUGHT HE NIGHT DE ASKED TODAY TO DRAFT SOMETHING WHICH THANKED LORD GORCNWY-ROBERTS FOR HIS RECENT MESSAGE, BUT WHICH EXPLAINED THAT THE SULTAN STILL AWAITED ADVICE FROM MR FLETCHER-COCKE IN LONDON. THE LETTER WOULD PROBABLY SAY THAT WHEN THIS ADVICE WAS AVAILABLE THE SULTAN WOULD HOPE TO BE IN A POSITION TO SEND A SUBSTANTIVE REPLY. MEANWHILE, THE SULTAN WAS VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE CONSIDERATION
BEING SHOWN.
