July 5, 1951Mr. George H. McFadden Curium Excavations Episkopi, Limassol Cyprus

Dear Mr. McFadden:

Thanks very much for yours of the 26th. Apparently, mine of June 1st was not sent air mail. Fro has asked me to reply to your last letter to him. It does not look very promising in regard to obtaining a refund but we appreciate your efforts. At any rate, it will not break the Museum.

The Philosophical Society tells me that the length of Fale's paper is up to the author. Some run to thirty or forty printed pages, so he has plenty of scope.

Fro is away until the middle of the month so that you will find him here on your return.

Sincerely yours,

Alfred Kidder II Associate Director
