Dear M^r Boodle,

          x[?]/<M^r> Arthur Hill has written to tell me that 

you have kindly offered to help me with regard to the 

identification, as far as it may be possible, of a number of 

Ancient Egyptian botanical specimens from the tomb of 

Tut.Ankh.Amen, that I have been able to bring over to London.

          I look forward to the pleasure of meeting you I would gladly 

come to see you some evening this week, or early next week, 

to talk over matters./<,> Or better still, would you care to 

come & dine quietly here where I have the material.

                                             Yours sincerely

                                                                       H.C

Dear D^r Hill

          Thank you ever so much for the trouble you

have taken on my behalf. I have just returned & have written 

to D^r. Boodle to arrange a meeting to talk over matters. 

The result of which I will let you know. With/<Again> thanking you
