The following telegram was sent to Her Majesty the Queen on
6th February, 1952 :-
Mr. Antony Head, with his humble duty, begs leave to offer
on behalf of the Army Council and the Army an expression of
their profound sympathy with your Majesty and the members of
the Royal Family.
We had followed with anxiety the course of the severe illness

progress.
