Concerning the latter portion of Poulton's letter [see MS/547/7/49], Kempe confirms that the Antarctic Expedition has been a source of considerable anxiety and was pleased that Poulton was satisfied with the actions of the Officers. The Government has agreed to take over responsiblity for the relief expedition, but will leave the affairs of the 'Discovery' to the joint Finance Committee. |
