Dear Sir,

In reply to your letter¹ of the 12th, I shall be very pleased to let you reprint pages 149 to 157 from vol. 1 of Australasia.¹ I should like some mention of their source, either at the end of the extract or in the preface, but that is a point which I am quite willing to leave to your good will and judgment.

I hope to finish the Compendium Series¹ in the new issue next year. I has taken a long time to get out, but I hope in its present shape and with new editions it may outlast us [2] both as a standard work of reference.

Yours faithfully | Edward Stanford²[signature]
