Edith thanks Anne for her letter of 15 June, which reached Edith late, so she has cabled her a response, which she quotes in her letter (see record 117524 for telegram).

"I hope it will reach you, and in some decipherable form—strained through a most unreliable country telephone and a Welsh-speaking telegraphist, I have grave doubts as to its final form. We most sincerely meant the message in the form in which I sent it."
