Item 62
Transcription: Left page dated 27/6/41 Recv 28/6 Following for Lester from Makins. Begins. Many thanks for your message. Full investigation shows that your name is not on any suspect list. Some mistake has evidently been made by censorship authorities at Bermuda and it may be some time before full enquiry which has been ordered can be completed. Ends. Right page BRITISH LEGATION, BERNE 28th June, 1941 Dear Mr. Lester, Mr. Livingston has kept me informed of the mistake made by our censorship authorities at Bermuda and I have seen the telegraphic correspondence which has passed on this subject. It is therefore with very great pleasure that I now send you the following personal message from the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. "I have heard of mistake made by censorship authorities at Bermuda which I fear must have caused you unnecessary distress which I much regret. You have of course the fullest confidence of His Majesty's Government and I much admire manner in which you are carrying on in your exposed and difficult position. You can rely on my full support in your endeavours to maintain activities of League and thereby to serve ideas for which the League stands." yours very sincerely, David V. Kelly

Diary 10: April - December 1941
Item 61
Transcription: Left page Geneva, June 23rd 1941. Dear Harry, Here I am corresponding as though fifty miles away from you. But what I would say is that neither Eden, nor Makins, nor yourself would do otherwise. It's not a question of pique or prestige. I don't think I'm personally petty when there is a question of something to be done in which I think there is service. Don't forget my background: I was Sinn Fein and pro-Irish when when my country was fighting Britain for its independence. That I spent only a few weeks in prison was largely a question of luck. There are still elements in London who suspect anything Irish. It may well be a precaution some people in high places share. Like you I don't think those who know me would suspect double-dealing, althoug I owe no allegiance except to my sense of decency & right. And don't forget I was not chosen for this post but fell into it by default of another. Again, it would be normal and unremarkable if local agents included me in the course of their surveillance duty; but "the List" covering correspondence with America (exclusively by the way, with Hambro, Loveday, Felkin and Phelan) gives it another significance. Also, I should not have dreamt of searching for any information, but it came to me; accidentally and openly and conclusively. Perhaps in time of such grave crisis one should suspect all the world - but it should not always be made evident. Finally, please don't think that I feel any one is in my debt. I took my line of action at a moment when it seemed more than possible we were facing final Right page -2- catastrophe. I couldn't do otherwise. It was quite without calcuation of any kind. I owed it to myself. You will undestand that. I have been fortunate in two things - first a wife who witout knowing everything is a constant source of courage and support in the psychological hardships of nearly two years separation; and, secondly, in having had you (and may I add Betty) as real friends and comrades. So, cheerio, one is not poor whatever comes. Yours ever.

Transcription: from Berne this evening. The Minister, who is as upset as I am that this should have happened, telegraphed Makins today so that the latter will not be wholly unprepared to receive your bombshell! Too bad. Yours, Harry L.
