sir,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of your letter No. 1004/1917 of the 3rd. October, 1917, with enclosures.
2.
I can remember having a discussion with Mr. Lloyd on the subject of presents at Christmas time, but cannot recall the exact terms of the discussion. Vy views were that there could be no possible abjection to receiving presents which were not of a valuable nature and which were obviously sent as a matter of courtesy at Christmas time. I certainly did not give instructions that Mr. Lloyd was not to refuse presents and I think it is unlikely that I said anything that could be construed to mean that I considered it politic to receive them. I did tell Mr. Lloyd that I did not propose to return the kind of present sent to me and that I saw no objection
to his receiving presents of a similar nature.
3.
As far as I remember I received 3 presents,
a white metal carved cigarette box, a bronze statuette
and a Japanese toy figure. The first two were common
articles such as can be seen in any Japanese fancy ware shop and could not be considered as valuable presents.
I
do not know what has become of them. The third was to me
a curiosity, but I did not consider it a valuable present and am forwarding it to you.

These presents came from the prominent
Japanese firms, M. B, K, N. Y. E. etc. and there may be one
more
