Dear Director,

Mr Halm informs me1 that he will be publishing the review of my Beethoven editions3 in the next issue of his journal (Verlag Diederich, Jena).2 If you should receive a copy, as is customary, please would you very kindly lend it to me so that I can at least take note what the review says. You will get the copy back by return. With many thanks in advance,

Yours very truly,
