Portée et contenu
Letter from R.A. Nicholson to C.A. Storey to thank for the presentation list and the communication regarding Minorsky. He writes he is definitely opposed to the publication of the translation and commentary apart from the text. He also is not pleased about supplying Minorsky with offprints but sees there are special circumstances. He writes of his wife's illness and how that has consigned them to their room and caused a delay in replying to correspondence. She is improving but thinks it will be some time before she returns to normal health. He, too, has a bad leg but otherwise is feeling fit.
