Bruxelles, 75 rue Montoyer - Concerning the discussion in 'Man' on his interpretation of the Acta Dasii, has written to [Andrew] Lang already, and wonders if he would send the attached note on its authenticity in reply to [Edwin Sidney] Hartland to 'Man', and asks him to translate it for Hartland's students; includes a passage from a letter from [Franz Wilhelm] Drexler about a sacrifice and the New Year's King; mentions a passage in Strabo's Geography about Albanians who seize a man, feed him well for a year and then sacrifice him to the gods. Enclosed is the letter for 'Man', published there in vol. 1 (1901) with an introduction by Frazer.
