Cabinet has approved my leaving.    Am arranging if convenient to you to sail August 4th.
meeting you some time 8th- 9th- 10th.    Actual secret rendezvous need not be settled till later.   
Admiralty will propose details through usual channels.
     Am bringing First Sea Lord Admiral Pound, C.I.G.S. Dill and Vice Chief of Air Staff
Freeman.    Am looking forward enormously to our talks, which may be of service to the future.
