Bullitt's letter of resignation and also letters from five of our principal experts protesting against the terms of peace and stating that they considered them to be an abandonment of the principles for which Americans had fought.
'And get him to issue, through the Fact, a semi-official declaration that "the whole story is a tissue of lies." Then I wished I hadn't used that particular phrase. It was an unfortunate one. It suggested a similarity between Lady Pinkerton's story and Mr. Bullitt's, between Arthur Gideon's denial and Lloyd George's.

William C. Bullitt was disclosing to the Committee on Foreign Relations at a public hearing the facts of a conference between Secretary Lansing and himself, in which Mr. Bullitt declared that Mr. Lansing had severely criticized the League of Nations. The press representatives aboard the train called Mr. Bullitt's testimony to the President's attention.
"COAX him to make pitty singin'? I LOVE his voice I'm dest CRAZY over it. Isn't oo?" William's passion for Mr. Bullitt's voice appeared to be under control. He laughed coldly, almost harshly.

Washington, who was at Raystown when the disastrous news arrived, was publicly complimented by General Forbes, on the gallant conduct of his Virginian troops, and Bullitt's behavior was "a matter of great admiration." The latter was soon after rewarded with a major's commission.
