- Later transcription.The honor and humanity of Britain will not permit her to accept a treaty without restitution of property to the Tories. Cannot believe that America will risk losing the treaty with her independence and the favorable gains in territory on this point. Is leaving at 2 o'clock today. If a decision is not made before then, they can give their decision to Oswald and he can send it after Strachey by messenger.
