I feel the "Notes" section should become the "References" section. Then rename the "Notes" to "Bibliography" section for the books sourced and references. Adamdaley ( talk) 11:05, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

In his book Closet Queens, about gay 20th century British politicians, historian and biographer Michael Bloch mentions Abd al-Ilah (whom he calls Prince Abdulilah) on pages 157 as being homosexual and a close friend of Alan Lennox-Boyd, 1st Viscount Boyd of Merton. Bloch says after al_Ilah was killed, "the revolutionaries discovered intimate letters from Lennox-Boyd among the Prince's papers, which they released to the world's press." Unfortunately he doesn't give any more details and having looked online I can't find any reference of those letters, which would surely be notorious. On page 159, Bloch says that Lennox-Boyd and Henry Channon organised a memorial service for their friend, the Prince, in 1958.
