| 2an earlier reply, if I had not become sick immediately
after it--- a kind of complicated influenza. And after
I left bed, poor Mrs. Hilprecht was taken ill, and
she spent 3 weeks in bed continuously and is not quite
well. You have had much trouble with Hamdy's
diploma, and we are here under deep obligations to you
for your many kind services rendered to the University
of Penna. I received a kind note from
Mrs. Terrell after I sent her the tablet with trans--
lation. So it arrived all night. I trust she is very
well. She look forward for your visit in the spring.
Our antiquity boxes have arrived some time
ago in good condition. I congratulate you upon the
fine two handled Homeric vases you received from
Troy. Indeed such a piece is a rare treasure! What
did you decide in regard to the collection he offered you?
If you do not buy it for Texas, reserve the option
for us please.
Did you receive the copy of my book "Assyriaca"
for you from Leipzig and that for His Majesty,
which at your suggestion I ordered to be bound
especially by the Court-Binder of the King of
Saxony. Was His Majesty pleased with it?
Without doubt, as you were the bearer of the little gift.
