bls. 1
very glad if you would lend
them to me.
Septbr. 12th
& Broad Sanctuary
Westminster
London.
Dear Sir
We returned to
England about ten
days ago, having had
a very peasant journey
to the North.
We found the passage across
Sprengisandr delightful, &
in fact we enjoyed our-
selves very much.
I should be very glad
bls. 2
if you could send back
by the next voyage of
the Arcturus the next plan
of the Althing & Thingvalla
as it is possible that
I shall write
an account of my visit
to Iceland, & therefore
wish to have the plan
as soon as possible
XXX at the same
time to put a price
upon it, & I wish
bls. 3
lend you the money
by the next steamer.
Prey (???) remember me
to all my friends
in Reykjavik where
I regretted much (???)
that I was only
able to stay to
short a time.
I think however
of returning to
Iceland next
year, in which
bls. 4
case I should
stay a longer time
in the capital.
Believe me
my dear (???)
very faithfully yours
G.W.Dasent
P.S. The Priest at
Herra Grenjarstaðr in
the North told me that
you had decyphered the
runic inscriptions in the
church yard there. If
you have I should be
bls. 6
bls. 7
Per steamer Arcturus from
Grangemouth
