Dear Professor Haeckel,

I am glad to hear from Mr. McCabe that you have kindly consented to accept 4000 marks for the English and American rights of the complementary volume to the Riddle of the Universe. Kindly formally confirm this.

It would assist us in disposing of the American rights if you would furnish us with the names of the American firms who have approached you on the matter.

Faithfully yours,

Charles A. Watts.
