Lord Lloyd has done us the honor of accepting the Presidency of the Patronage Committee; I now come to ask you to be part of this Committee. Nothing can be happier for our Association than to begin its activity under the auspices of a name like yours, attached for so long to the friendship of France. Please accept, Sir, the expression of my very distinguished feelings.” In fine condition.
