At your suggestion I learned of four more manuscripts of the Pancadandachattraparabandha through the Bhandarkar Institute. The India office is now obtaining them for me. I hope that after their arrival, I shall soon be able to finish my adition of the story.
I am very sorry that I was not in Paris to meet Mr. Shah,
Profestor Edgerton has arrived home and I have had a letter from him in which I see that he is elated on the most profitable year that he spent in India. I hope I shall soon be able to follow in his foot steps by making a similar trip. With very best wishes, I am, sir,
Very respectfully yours,

October 1, 1928. Sir,
Your letter of August 21, from Akola, has just been received.
I appreciate very much the interest you are taking in my work on the Panchadandachatraprabandha. I have been able to collect four manuscripts besides the printed edition which you sent me, so I feel that I am now in a position to make a very good critical edition. As I came to difficulties in text, you may be sure that I will take advantage of your offer of help.
I am writing immediately to Carnell University and the Boston Institute of Technology to send me full information Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com
