Dear Sir,

I have been informed that my husband Councillor Frank Claydon in missing from air operations.

In the national interest I do [underlined] not [/underlined] wish any mention of this fact to appear in the press and should be grateful, therefore, if you would kindly refrain from mentioning the fact in “The Barnet Press” until hearing further from me.

Yours faithfully,

The Editor,
