Dear Sir,

An ethical movement based on the doctrine of evolution being just about to rise in Germany I should like very much to draw public attention to an essay of yours, published in the Arena of January 1892. "Human Progress past and present".² Would [2] you be kind enough to give me permission of translating it into German? I am German by birth and although being Lecturer in a British University I am in close connection with the mental life of Germany. I know, many of my fellow countrymen will be very much interested in the subjects of the named essay of yours, if they only have opportunity of being acquainted with it.

I should be very much obliged to you for an answer.

Yours truly | Alexander Tille³ [signature] Ph. D.
