Letter from Dr. Alois Anton Führer in Camp to William Claxton Peppé at Birdpore, in which he acknowledges Peppé's plan of the excavation, photographs and copies of the inscription. He declares that the casket 'contains real relics of Lord Buddha' and is a 'great find'. Führer hopes to come to the excavation on 15 February when he will explore other mounds. He will be glad to see Peppé and Smith in his camp but warns them it is 'a trying ride' and he asks for notice of their arrival as he has difficulty getting provisions. Handwritten, 2 sides, dated 24 January 1898.
