My dear Sir

Thanks for your paper it is extremely interesting and will be read next meeting

I will take care that you see the proofs of your papers for the reprint of Vol. III

The new part of the Transactions ¹ Vol IV. p.2. is all ready for press and I hope to get it out next month promptly but Mr Mabey has delayed me hitherto

Your Account of Delitzschs ² book was read last meeting. There is some chance of M^r Sayce ³ editing it in English with addition for the Archaic Classics

Smith ⁴ returns at the end of this month unsuccessful in his attempt to obtain a firman. He has however made a few purchases

When can you send me some further texts for Records of the Past? ⁵ I shall try and bring out two volumes a time as before

Y af^ly

W.R. Cooper
