Text

The English, I think will accept your 14 points with some changing - such as military commander Open the question of reparation at sea - and the making of the freedom of the seas conditional upon the formation of a League of Nations #

The French are inclined not to accept your terms but will formulate their demands(?)

There will be a meeting between Lloyd George Clemenceau __________ myself this afternoon.

Wiseman informs me that -- Hackler? futier? and Foch have now agreed to terms for an Armistice but I have not the details.




Dearest

This is the best I can do - but will try on the mistakes underscored later -

I love you
