Letter from G D Kirkland (683 West Monroe Street, Jacksonville, Florida [United States]) to WSC in response to his broadcast to the United States. She says that she considers WSC "guiltless" for Great Britain's failure to pay its debts and for [the Duke of Windsor earlier King Edward VIII and Edward, Prince of Wales] "being driven out as an exile for preferring an American wife [Wallis Simpson]" and that many Americans feel that WSC belongs with them.
