Dear Mr. Ewing,

Re: Estate of George H. McFadden, deceased.

At the request of Mr. Edwards I have prepared a list of the Articles which the University Museum wishes to purchase from the Estate of the late Mr. McFadden, and I enclose two copies for your information.

I presume that payment by the Museum will be effected in Cyprus as the value of these articles has been included in the return which will be submitted to the Commissioner of Estate Duty for the computation of the Estate Duty payable by the Estate in Cyprus under the Estate Duty Law.

I am now making arrangements for the sale of the shares bequeathed by the deceased to the University Museum in pursuance of instructions given to me on behalf of the University Museum, by Mr. Roger Edwards.

Yours sincerely, /s/ S. Souliotis P. L. CACOYANNIS

Sincerely yours,

Handwritten: John Kennedy Ewing 3rd
