It is very kind of you to invite me, to write to you what Indian books I should like to have. I thank you very much for your kindness. Perhaps it might be possible to exchange some books. It would be a very great pleasure to me to send to you any book published in the German Democratic Republic in exchange for books published in India.
Thanking you once more for your munificence and your
kindess
I am, Your most respectfully, FRIEDRICH WELLER.

Your Holiness,
Many thanks for your letter dated Dec. 14, 58. I received it today. I am glad to learn that the Asiatica reached you.
As to the books you were kind enough to have dispatched to my address, I beg to inform you that upto now I neither got your book Vaisali ( Hindi ) nor a copy of the Kalpasutra you mention. I feel assured that after some time both of them will arrive. I should think it is best to have books dispatched, if possible, by registered book post.
As to the address of Professor Hertel's eldest son, please let me have some days. At Leipzig the eldest daughter of Professor Hertel is still living. But she moved a few months ago and I do not even know her address. You will get a letter before very long with both addresses.
