Now that they have realised their ardent desire of forming ties of personal friend- ship with Your Majcstics and with members of your family, I trust they will enjoy a pleasant sojourn in your country, as I myself did when I visited it some years ago; conducing, I am confident, to s furtherance of the bonds of unity and friendship which so happily unite our two realms.

"It affords me the greatest pleasure to learn that Your Majesty has accorded me the exalted rank of Field Marshal in your army and entrusted the baton to the Prince to convey to me, also that Your Majesty has graci- qusly been pleased to confer the Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order on my brother. For these manifestations of Your Majesty's sincere friendship and goodwill, I would ask you to accept my heart felt and renewed thanks, together with my best wishes for the welfare of your Royal House and prosperity of the British Empire. --British Wirelcas.
