Record Type	Correspondence
Title	Letter from Queen Victoria to Lord John Russell
Date	20 December 1848
Writer	Victoria, Queen
Addressee	Russell, John, Lord
Description	Queen Victoria notes that the Ambassador's question is raised again, yet it might easily have been avoided if Lord Normanby had not so eagerly followed up what he desires to obtain. It may still be stopped if he were told to remain passive, or to explain when he has an opportunity that it would be preferred not to have an Ambassador here. As the French profess to be willing to do what would please England, they should have no difficulty in conforming to England's wishes in this regard.
