From J. V. Carus 7 October 1867
My dear Sir,
I get in this moment the sheets T, U, X, Y, or p 273–336. Unfortunately the sheet S or p. 257–272 is still wanting.1 I hasten to tell it to you at once. I apply to you, as the envelop bears the stamp “Bromley” and I therefore conclude that you were sending the sheets.2
Pray send the missing as soon as possible Believe me | Yours most truly | J. Victor Carus
Leipzig, 39, Elsterstrasse
