In reply to your question with reference to Mr. Bonar Law’s corrected statement in Hansard, the Printer’s date at the bottom of the Submarine Paper,[18] sent to the Prime Minister and First Lord of the Admiralty is January, 1914, seven months before the War.
Yours always,
Fisher.

My Dear Hankey,
In reply to your inquiry, my five points of peace (as regards Sea war only) are:

(2) Ditto, every German Submarine.
(3) Ditto, Heligoland.
(4) Ditto, the two flanking islands of Sylt and Borkum.
