George Lowe Was The One Who Opened The Mail, And George Started Laughing Uproariously And I Looked Up At Him In Astonishment And Said, "what's So Funny?" And He Said, "you've Been Given A Title", And I Said, "ha, Ha, Big Joke." I Didn't Believe Him But, Sure Enough, In This Letter It Indicated That The Queen Had Given Me A Title.

I Was Certainly Seriously Emotionally Affected [ When Louise Hillary And Belinda Hillary Died], But We Were Building The Hospital At The Time And I Decided That The Only Thing To Do Was To Carry On And Complete The Hospital - And It Was A Jolly Good Hospital Too, I Might Say. So I Really Did It By Working And Working On The Things That Louise And I Had Been Working On.

We Shared A Philosophy Together [with June Hillary]. We Believed Very Strongly In The Welfare Of Helping Other People, Particularly The Third World People.

Challenge Is What Makes Men. It Will Be The End When Men Stop Looking For New Challenges.

I Was Not A Beater Of Children And As A Consequence I've Always Been, I Think, Very Agreeable And Co-operative.
