I have seen that this is agreed on the tel. of 8 June.
It seems to be about Amoy, in which case, it would appear that permission from at home has been anticipated — a rather injudicious proceeding on Sir Henry Blake's part. If the W.O. or the Secretary of State had objected, he would have looked foolish.
You will see from the confidential despatch that we have received from the W.O.
W.O. ? Put by. A.F.
