Correspondence

A draft of Dorothea Bleek's letter to Professor Carl Meinhof. No date. Dorothea is writing to Professor Meinhof because he has informed her of his readiness to read her MS ("Bushman Grammar: A Grammatical Sketch of the Language of the |xam-ka-!k'e".); she informs him she is posting it to him. She lists four points on which she particularly wants his opinion, including grammatical terms, cross-referencing and her use of the hyphen. She would also like to know of any corrections she must make. [She refers to alterations Meinhof suggested in a previous letter.]
