Prof. Chas. E. Bessey,
Acting Chancellor University of Nebraska,
Lincoln, Neb.

Dear Sir: - Replying to your favor of the 29th we beg to say that the best information at our command gave Prof. Manatt as the Pres't of the University and the Dict'y was sent to him as such. Inasmuch as he is no longer connected with the University, we shall be glad to have you accept the book with out compliments. When you have an opportunity to examine it we will highly appreciate an expression of your opinion of its merits.

Yours very truly,

G. & C. Merriam & Co.
