Date10 January 1913
Description'In reply to your letter requesting further facilities for photographing Leibnis documents here, I beg to say that the permission and facilities before extended to you shall be continued and your photographer shall have access as before to the documents you wish repreoduced. You will no doubt accompany him, also as before.
I note that the letters you require are 6 in number, four in Letter Book 4 and two in Letter Book 5. These appear to be correct, according to your references.
As to the Letters Wallis to Oldenburg 17 April 1671 and 12 June of same year, our Catalogue shows a letter of April 8 and another of June 2, but no letters of the exact dates you mention. However you could see these, in case they should be the letters required. The dates I quote may be old-style, and yours may be new-style.
As to the paper by Wm. Neile, on theory of movement, we have the original in question.'
