May 6th, 1940

Dear Mr. Cheney:

I just received your letter asking me to give you more information in connection with the exhibition held in our Paris galleries in 1913. I am sorry to say that we do not have catalogue in our New York Library; therefore, I am unable to check up on it. Furthermore, the date of 1913 is so far back that personally I know nothing about this exhibition and Mr. Selligmann himself does not recall the objects which were exhibited at the time.

However, as I plan to go over to Paris very shortly, I will make it a point to look up this catalogue and communicate to you all information.

It was very nice, indeed, meeting you in Cleveland, and hope that when you come to New York you will not fail to drop in here.

Please believe me to be

Yours very sincerely,

(C. M. de Hauke)


Thomas L. Cheney, Esq.

P.S. May I point out that the pamphlet which I gave Mr. Milliken was given to us by the Clarence H. Mackay Estate and we think it was made Messrs. Duveen Bros.
