opinion further exprossed by His Excellency that it would be
unusual to have such an Agrement signed by the two parties
at different places and at different dates. I propose to
request instructions on this point from His Majesty's Prin-
cipal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
I shall not fail to keep you informed of the fur-
ther progress of the negotiations.
I have the honour to be, with the highest respect,
Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
(Signed) J. N. Jordan.
