Letter from Vincent Arthur Smith in Gorakhpur to William Claxton Peppé in Birdpore in which Smith finds Peppé's discoveries 'very interesting'. He hopes he will write a detailed account of his excavations with plans and photographs and asks him to survey the whole site. He warns Peppé that he must report his find officially. He believes the stupa to be 'of early date – anterior to the Christian era'. Continuing on 20 January, he adds that he is busy in court until 26 January but could come out to visit him by train on 27 January. Handwritten 8 sides, dated 19-20 January 1898.
