Lacock 3 August / 56
Dr Sir
I am much obliged by your Kind invitation, which I hope I shall be able to accept, but feel uncertain as to the time – I intend being at the earlier part of the Cheltenham meeting, where perhaps I shall see you, but I must return here on the Saturday as I have friends staying in the house
I published some short papers recently, on the Assyrian inscriptions in the Journal of Sacred Literature if I can find a copy of them, I will send it for your acceptance
Believe meYours very truly
H. F. Talbot
