OTRS Ostasiatiska Samlingarna Sveavägen Stockholm, Sweden. Prof von Le Coq, Museum fur Völkerhunde, 120 Königgrätzerstrasse, Berlin SW, 11 October 2lith, 1927 Dear Prof von Le Coq: I have to present to you my most humble apologies for not having replied long ago to your kind letters, one containing a list of Central Asiatic literature written very long ago, and the second of July 28th this year, relating to your kind suggestion of electing me a corresponding member of the Gesellschaft fär Ostasiatische Kunst. All since my return from China,in May this year, I have been in poor health and able to do very little work.

It goes without saying, that I am exceedingly grateful for the exceptional honor benköved upon me in suggesting to make me a corresponding member of your society.

0786. least the big bulk of our prehistoric things arranged in definite shape in January next, at the date that will mark the formal opening of this museum Furthermore, we have planned to invite a small number of scholars, foremost amongst which, Your Honorable Self, for a small meeting here in Stockholm next summer in order to inspect our co? lecetions when they are fully arranged. I will communicate with you in full detail as soon as our plans have taken more definite shape, Please excuse me, dear Professor von Le Coq, for adåressing you in English, TI have an English secretary and find it so much more easy to write in that language, which is just as familiar to you as German. So I hope you do not mind. With kindest regards, Yours very truly,
