Before this mission Lyons had ,aked
Favre whether If England requested
an arm'stice, the French government
would welcome her Intervention.
Whom this became known to Lord
Granville Loyas was politely rebuked
for his pains. Bent On improving tho
situation Lyons sent Ma llets on :. an in.
formal missions to Bismaok notifying
Granville after Mallett had gone.
Lord Granville forthwith directed
Lyons to summon M,llett back. Lyon
obeyed, but his messenger took the
wrong road, and Mallett, after several
failures in making his way through
the crowd Of Uhlans, reached the
Kings headquarters Out of all this
