The Secretary of State to the British Ambassador (Halifax)
Dear Lord Halifax: Thank you for your note of today’s date conveying the message from Mr. Eden, which I very much appreciate. I am going to ask you to send him the following reply in the hope that it might reach him before he leaves Canada:
“I said Good-bye to you at the Airport on Tuesday with very real regret. Your presence in Washington and the occasions it offered for exchanges of views has been a very real contribution to the cause we have in common. Thank you for your friendly note. I send with this, an expression of warm regards to you and the members of your party who so much contributed to the discussions in Washington.”
I remain, dear Mr. Ambassador,
Sincerely yours,
