to me for O.K. Sherds for study from 1955 excavation, F. E. . — M. de Contenson has selected sherds from our 1955 dig to be send on loan to Paris for publication as well as 2 small iron age vases (wavy line type). He has shown them to M. Karageorghis. I would be grateful to add these to the packing. M. Kuss could sign the receipt on my behalf. If the their photographies (each single) could be made in the Museum and M. Kuss could make the drawings of the vases, these could remain in the Museum. Information for M. Kuss. Would you please tell M. Kuss that I have received his letter to Beyrouth just in time before embarking. That I shall write him from Athens, but that I had time to send him a note and a cheque. — Many thanks. — My wife joins me in sending you and Mrs Megaw our best wishes and kind regards with our thanks for your hospitality. Yours sincerely

CFASchaeffer.
