Brandi McCary (Not McCarry) citation problem[edit]

It appears that this citation comes from an undergraduate at Loyola New Orleans, as part of a "journal" kept by students in the history department. Cf. http://cas.loyno.edu/history/student-historical-journal-1994-1995 ("Each spring, the student editorial staff and the faculty of the Department of History choose the very best student papers submitted in that academic year to appear in the Journal.... Competition is not restricted to history majors, but is open to all undergraduates at Loyola who have written a history research paper."). As such, it does not belong in a Wikipedia article, and certainly not as a citation of an authoritative opinion on source materials and private consultations between a British Prime Minister and the King's Private Secretary.

Hardinge's wife, Helen Hardinge, in her memoir, Loyal to Three Kings (London 1967), p. 135, wrote, "There was never any question, at any time, of his composing it [the letter to King Edward VIII of 13-15 November 1936] in co-operation with, at the instigation of, the Prime Minister, Geoffrey Dawson or anybody else."

The conspiracy theory began with Edward VIII himself, and was enshrined in his memoir, A King's Story (Cassell 1951). See Sarah Bradford, George VI (Weidenfeld and Nicolson 1989 [Penguin 2002 paperback reprint], pp. 232-234.
