Enkomi - Alasia, 17. X. 57. Dear Morin, I reopen my letter to thank you for sending us the box of compasses, which will serve us very well and which we keep with pleasure. It has been so successful with Kuss that he will want one too; so please have a second one bought for me and sent with a receipted invoice (Miss. Arch. Fr.), Mr Bajada can supply the funds from the deposit I left with him. Thank you in advance. Not urgent, of course. — Do you think one can find in Nicosia a Flash outfit adaptable to Rolleiflex or (and ?) Leica camera + ? If so would you ask the dealer to send me prospectus + price indication. I add 1 Panatomic X film to be developed + 1 Ektachrome if this can be safely developed in Nicosia. Please have it delivered to Avedissian, Ledra Street. Thank you in advance.

+ If not adaptable, is there another battery flash independent of the camera that can be supplied in Nicosia?
