Summary

Typewritten draft of Dorothea Bleek's letter in German to Professor Carl Meinhof, 14 July 1939. [Not translated.] A footnote, in English, explains Dorothea's representation of the symbols written by the authors she quoted - made necessary by printing difficulties. The letter includes a page in English entitled "Bushman Languages", listing the tribes/speakers of the languages discussed in her paper. These are listed under the headings "Southern Group", "Northern Group" and "Central group", along with the locality of each tribe. There is also a paragraph briefly describing smaller tribes she has recorded but that will not be dealt with.
