My Dear Sir

As I am now arranging for Vols VII & VIII of Records of the Past 1 I shall be glad to receive your contribution to the Assyrian translations as soon as possible so that we may issue the Vols punctually in July

Your paper 2 was greatly admired at the meeting on Tuesday. Rawlinson, Smith and Cull 3 all spoke but Sir Henry was unable to agree with some portions of your work. especially as regarded the serpent and the supreme deity. it excited great applause when I stated that the paper would appear in a fortnight
