File contains two copies of a transcript of General Paton's speech to the Third Army on the eve of the Allied Invasion of France. The source is not provided—Paton's speeches were extemporaneous and there were several versions based on reports at the time.

File also includes three drafts of an address made by Charles Bruce at a dinner held on 11 May 1946 in honour of Andrew Merkel's retirement as Atlantic superintendent of The Canadian Press and a copy of the CP Informative Bulletin, which includes an account of the dinner and tributes to Merkel from editors at Halifax Herald and Halifax Chronicle.
