Roosevelt Papers: Telegram

King George VI to President Roosevelt 1

most secret
London, 26 July 1943.

From the King to President Roosevelt personal and most secret.

President Roosevelt: I greatly hope that throughout your forthcoming meeting with my Prime Minister at Quebec, you and he will occupy the Governor-General’s quarters in the Citadel.

Lord Athlone tells me he will be delighted to arrange for them to be put at your joint disposal. As he himself will be leaving Ottawa on [Page 402] August 8th for a long planned tour of the northwest, he regrets that it will not be possible for him to meet you in Quebec as he would otherwise have wished to do.

George R. I.
