She has won a real place in all our hearts. Through her unfailing tact, her genuine kindliness, and her unvarying readiness to respond to any call upon her time and energy, she has greatly contributed to the success of your ambassadorship. Ever sincerely, D. LLOYD GEORGE. From Viscount Grey of Fallodon Glen Innerleithen, Scotland. September 2, 1918. I am very grieved to think that you are going.
Among the many letters we received, this one from Sir Edward Grey, the present Lord Grey of Fallodon, gave my husband the most comfort: 33 ECCLESTON SQUARE, S.W. Sept. 18, 1916. A generation has passed since Raymond's mother died and the years that have gone make me feel for and with you even more than I would then.
And now the great occasion for which he had prepared had come, and in Grey's mind this signified more than a help to England in soldiers and ships; it meant bringing together the two branches of a common race for the promotion of common ideals. From Viscount Grey of Fallodon Rosehall Post Office, Sutherland, April 8, 1917. I can't express adequately all that I feel.
Then he talked about more or less frivolous subjects; and, as always, he asked about Mr. Bryan and Mr. Roosevelt, "alike now, I suppose, in their present obscure plight." I told him I was going from his house to the House of Lords to see Sir Edward Grey metamorphosed into Viscount Grey of Fallodon. "The very stupidest of the many stupid ceremonies that we have," said he very truly.
It is my strong impression that Lord Grey of Fallodon took the only course that was practicable, and that, had the danger of the catastrophe to be faced again and for the first time, the course he took would, even in the light of all we know to-day, again afford the best chance of avoiding it.
I cannot adequately express what it was to me personally in the dark days of 1914, 1915, and 1916 to know how you felt about the great issues involved in the war. I go to Fallodon at the end of this week and come to London the first week of September if you and Mrs. I long to do so before you go. I wish you may recover perfect health.
