19th May 1977

Dear Professor Schaeffer,

I suppose you are now back from your trip in the Nile and have no doubt that you have enjoyed the cruise. I myself have just come back from a six weeks lecture tour in the U.S.A.

I also believe that the material on loan to you for study is now ready to return to Cyprus and I will be much obliged if you can hand it over to our Embassy in Paris who have been informed already. Their address is :

Ambassade de Chypre 23 rue Galilée 75116 Paris Tel. 720-86-28

My wife joins me in sending you and Mrs Schaeffer our best wishes.

Yours sincerely
