ADMIRAL SPERRY’S FINAL WORD.
“More Binding Than Treaties.” Auckland, August 15. Admiral Sperry’s final message to the Dominion, through the Governor, is as follows:—“On the eve of the departure of the Atlantic Fleet from Auckland, the Commander-in-Chief desires, on behalf of the Government, officers, and men, to express through you to the people of New Zealand our hearty thanks for the cordial reception and generous hospitality accorded the Fleet by the Government and people of the Dominion. This friendship and esteem existing between the British Empire and the United States cannot fail to be strengthened by a visit of this nature, which brings on both nations a realisation of their close relationship and common interests, and fosters a sympathy of mutual understanding more binding than treaties.”
