Summary:

Inconceivable that JH merely writes 'J'accepte' (I accept) in response to the great honor AQ bestows upon him by dedicating his book to JH. Congratulates AQ on his 'fresh contribution to statistical knowledge.' Has just completed his catalogue of approximately 10,000 double and multiple stars.
