[6] These “futilities,” of which Mr. Churchill complains, were largely owing to Document No. 2, which Mr. de Valera had forced upon his representatives, and to discussions on the Naval clauses, in which Erskine Childers seems to have showed himself frivolous and absurd. (See Hayden Talbot, Michael Collins’ Own Story, pp. 71, 72.)
