Dear Mr. Seligman,

since Mr.  constable is still in Europe I am writing you about your request for the loan of Bonaparte Visiting the Pest-Ridden of Jaffa by Baron Gros. The next meeting of our Trustees comes on October 20 and I am sure Mr. Constable will be glad to place your request before the Trustees at that time.

Very truly yours,
