1 Brick Court, Temple, London, E.C.4. Dated 9 September 1921 - Asks him to send him the proofs of his popular account of the Mackie Expedition as well as the serious account, as it is a stimulus to his own work; thanks him for his 'Twenty-five Years in East Africa'; asks him to include the information that in the performance of certain rites, the performer had to be a person whose parents were both alive, a rule he has seen elsewhere; is sorry not to see him in Edinburgh, did not have time to prepare a presidential address so had to resign the presidency.
