رسالة من جورج سيقلي الى أخيه ميشال سيقلي يخبره فيها كيف قامت منظمات الفدائيين بمساعدة الجيش السوري باحتلال قسم كبير من جنوبي وشمالي لبنان، وأن الحالة خطرة. كما يخبره كيف تقوم هذه المنظمات بالتعدي على مواقع الجيش اللبناني. ثم يعلمه أن جمال عبد الناصر قام بدعوة قائد الجيش اللبناني ورؤساء الفدائيين لتسوية الوضع واصفًا له كيف أن اتفاق القاهرة يسمح للفدائيين بالمرور بأراضي جنوبي لبنان ليقوموا بغاراتهم على اسرائيل. وينهي كلامه بأن هذا الاتفاق لم يعجب غالبية الفئات المسيحية.
