YORK HOUSE MEETING "There were about 30 people. at an informal meeting which was held in my dining-room at York House about 5 or 5.30 on the after- noon of Tuesday, January 21. I called the meeting in order to dis-- cuss the funeral arrangements, and those present represented all the

authorities necessary

who would be concerned.

"Among those present were re- presentatives of the three services and of the pollee, the Earl Mar- shal, Sir Gerald Wollaston and, I think, Lord Wigram.

"My brother, the present King. was also there.

"

"I told the meeting of my mo- desire that the funeral ther's should take place on January 28.

"All present, with the exception of Sir Gerald Wollaston, agreed that everything could be arranged for Tuesday, January 28, a weet from the day of our meeting............

"Since this date sulted the 'con- venience of everyone else, I had to tell Str Gerald that he must expedite his part of the arrange- ments so that the furieral could take place on that day.

"I said, 'I'm very sorry, but if everyone else says it can be ar- ranged, we must do everything we can to follow the Queen's wishes in this matter.

"I had to speak quite sharply to Sir Gerald on the subject.

QUEEN MARY'S THANKS

"The next day I went back to Sandringham. I told my mother, Queen Mary, that I had arranged the matter as she had wished, and she thanked me for what I had done.

"I know that my mother would confirm the fact that it was her
