December 6, 1966  

Mr. B. Christensen

Wellington Road  

Petersville, Clayton  

Victoria  

Australia  

Thank you very much for your letter and for your  

encouraging news about Dame Pattie. cannot expect  

my old friend Frank Packer to be delighted with the  

results of the tests so far, but am bound to say  

that it would be great thrill to both my wife and  

myself, something we have not done before, to carry  

off the Americas Cup.  

note that it is scheduled to commence on the  

12th of September, If am still in decent health and  

strength both Pat and will be most happy to take up  

your invitation on that occasion.  

With warm regards,  

Yours sincerely,  

R. G. Menzies
