Le Castel Blanc, 14 Rue Turgot, St.Germain-en Laye, (Seine et Oise). 1st June 1948.

Dear friend,

Thank you for your letter of 5 May. I am glad to learn that you are restored to health. I hope that Mrs Dikaios and your little girl, to whom we send our warm regards, are both very well. I am pleased that there is a chance of seeing you here at the occasion of your journey to England and France. We are here until early August, apart from short trips to England. Our telephone number is 13.47 at St.Germain.

I have sent to Mr Megaw and to the Colonial Secretary the final acceptance of the project and am pleased with this new cooperation between us.

Thank you for the information on the weights. Until soon then, and a good journey,

Mr P. Dikaios, Curator of the Museum of Nicosia.
