Dear Sir Edward Grey:-
In accordance with your kind suggestion I am
enclosing the letter of application for Dr. Sun-Yat-Sen
to
have the right of visiting Hongkong.
In the event of his shortly becoming President
of the Chinese United States, it would be very prejudicial
to British interests that he should have a grievance
against the British Government.
I understand that if the crder is rescinded
in quite a private way, he would be quite satisfied as I
think it is really a question of personal feeling only
with him.
(Signed)
The Right Honourable
Sir Edward Grey, Bart.,
&C.,
&c., &c.
M.P.
Yours very truly,
A. Trevor Dawson.
