General Mikhailovitch, says British Official Wireless, added: "If, however, you have abandoned forever the idea of a new victory for France over her enemies, let me then address this appeal to that still unknown Marshal of France, who will emerge from the darkness of the present day, inspired by the great spirit of France."
