Dear Mr. Carr:
I am very grateful to you indeed for your courteasy in the matter of my passports and partcacicularly in furnishing me with letters to our Consuls at Liverpool and Paris and for the Secretary’s letter addressed to Ambassador Sharp.
While I have not had the pleasure of meeting Ambassador Page, I think it is safe to say that we are pretty well known to each other after the exchange of cables a year ago last August and September, and I shall take the first opportunity of calling at the Embassy on arriving in London.
If possible, I will bring suitable photographs with me to Washington to-morrow, but if unable to get them in time, I will have some taken in Washington, as I expect to be there all the week.
With kindest regards, and again thanking you for your assistance which is very much appreciated, I am,
