My dear Alec ,

Thank you very much for your kind letter. Of course you cannot desert your new party. I do not know what to say about my majority. My opponent was a very nice fellow, but of course he was heavily handicapped. I think a great many people must have voted for me as they would have voted for Harry Lauder!

Yours ever, John Buchan
