Dear Professor Haeckel,

Many thanks for your letter confirming [a] management re our publishing of translation of complementary volume to the Riddle of the Universe. Mr. Mc Cabe will proceed with the translation at once, and we hope to have the book ready for issuing early in December. May it be as great a success as the Riddle.

Faithfully Yours

Charles A. Watts.

Hope you won’t forget to send the names of firms which offered to buy the English and American rights.
