your letter together with
the plan & drawings
of the essay (ATH) on the Thing-

pounds sterling, on the
the understanding that

the plan belongs to
me & that no copy
of it will be published
in Denmark or elsewhere.
It seems to me very
well done, though I do
not agree in some
parts of your essay (ATH)

Courts on the
Thingfield during the
middle ages; but that
is a small matter.

I shall be obliged
if you will write
me a letter (ATH) to say that
you have received the
money by the next
steamer.
I trust that you & all
my friends in Iceland
have had good
weather during the
winter, & that, if I
come back next summer
as hope to do, I
shall find you

all safe & sound.
Believe me
be great XXX
very faithfully yours
G. W. Dasent.
