the Philippine Islands I have gotten. He tells an interesting story and I
agree with many of his conclusions, though, here and there, our sympathies do
not touch.
We arrived this afternoon at three o'clock. The British Government had
made arrangements to di sembark our party. The balance of the passengers will
not be allowed to leave the ship under twenty-four hours because of examinations
incident to the war. The naval officers who came on board had our baggage taken

did everything possible to make our journey to London comfortable.
London,
January 6, 1916.
We arrived in London this morning around seven o'clock. No one knew
the train we would take and therefore no one met us. I found a note of welcome
from Page and I telephoned him and took breakfast with him. Our conversation
was of no especial interest.
I also took lunch with Page and we exchanged hews and experiences
since we last met.
Sidney Brooks called and we discussed many questions since he is sail-
ing for New York tomorrow.
I sent word to Sir Edward Grey that I would call at 33 Eccleston
Square at seven o'clock. I reached there shortly before seven and found him
waiting. Brooks had told me how kindly and <del>in what a</del> complimentary <del>way</del> Grey
had spoken of me. Brooks thought he had a real affection for me. I hope he
has for I feel as much toward him.
Sir Edward told <del>something</del> of the progress of the war and all the
misadventures that have befallen the Allies since we met. He thought things
were going better now and that Great Britain was never more resolute to win.
