אדוני הלורד,

אני מצטער שלא היה באפשרותך לראותני בהיותי בלונדון.

אך לעומת זאת היה לי העונג לראות את סֶר תוֹמאס סֶנדֶרסוֹן,

והוא בוודאי יספר לך שמשלחת החקר לחצי־האי סיני

תצא לדרכה מאסמעיליה סמוך ל־6 בפברואר.

מר גרינבֶּרג, שנפגש קודם לכן עם הלורד קרוֹמֶר ועם אחרים בקהיר,

יֵצא לשם בקרוב כדי לדון שם עם הרשויות בדבר הצ׳רטר

שיש לקבלו מממשלת מצרים. 

למר גרינבֶּרג תהיה סמכות מלאה לפעול בשמי ובשם

הוועד־הפועל של התנועה הציונית,

ואודה לאדוני הלורד אם יואיל־נא להודיע זאת ללורד קרוֹמֶר.

אני מבקש בכנות להודות לאדוני הלורד בעבור העזרה

בעניין זה ולהבטיח שנעשה הכול כדי שהתוכנית אכן תצליח.  

הנני, אדוני הלורד, משרתך הצייתן
