No. 17 UCDA P104/7727
Handwritten draft of a letter from Frank Aiken to Frank Pakenham (London)
Dublin, 5 July 1951
Many thanks for your kind note.
I need not tell you how delighted I am that Dev is again in a position to influence the relations between these two peoples and that there is in the Admiralty a man1 whom we regard with so much affection and esteem.
I pray God that during our terms of office we may help to bring success to the noble cause of Anglo-Irish friendship.
With all good wishes to yourself and Lady Pakenham.
