The Secretary of State to the Minister in Greece (MacVeagh)

72. The Greek Minister has informed the Department that shortly after King George returns to Athens he will invite the Chiefs of Mission to meet him in audience. The Minister has expressed the hope that you will be authorized to join with your colleagues in this ceremony although there will not have been time to provide you with new letters of credence or for new letters of credence to have been presented by him.

It is the Department’s desire that you attend this ceremony unless the representatives of the guaranteeing powers do not propose to be present, in which case you should communicate with the Department for further instructions.
