As to Schubring's catalogue of Jain MSS. in the Berlin Library, it is still available. The price is about 80 Marks which is equivalent to about 90 Rupees. If you want to have the book at that price, please inform me and I will have it sent to you. In that case, I should ask you to pay the price to Mr. Gondhalekar of the Poona Oriental Book House, 330A Sadashiv Peth, Poona, with whom I have an account. You will be glad to hear that Prof. Schubring celebrated his 70th birthday a few days ago, on the 10th of December. He was presented with a congratulatory volume of 18 papers contributed by German indologists including myself. The volume was published as vol. 7 of the Alt-und Neu-indische Studien edited by my Seminary. A complimentary copy will be sent to you these days.
Looking forward to hearing from you again, and with my very best wishes for your work and well being.
Yours sincerely,
L. ALSDORF.
The exceedingly pleasant afternoon spent with you at Kekri still lingers very vividly in my memory.
