"Received teiltree, Thanks! Spider, marvels" - translated means that I [[strikethrough]] had [[/strikethrough]] have received your remitance of two thousands pounds sterling, and deeply grateful and that with a part of the money I have already purchased some marvellous art objects. It will please you to know that these funds have helped me to early paintings by the greatest of Sung & Yuan painters such as no Europeans or Americans Museum - and I can safely add Japan has - including Riviomin in superb style and condition - two specimens - and others of almost equal rank. I appreciate too the promptness of the Peoples State Bank in this matter and I hope that when opportunity offers you will kindly extend my thanks to the official who did the work. Give my special regards to George H. Russel too- Excuse this hurried note, I must rush off and spend the balance of the remittance before some competitor enters my "diggins"- With all good messages and warmest thanks Yours very sincerely Charles L Freer
