Dear Sir,

Mr. Naruse has kindly advised me all particulars of what you and he has kindly secured for me from the Hansen’s collection, in spite of lots of troubles in this transaction, and for which I don’t know really how to thank you. Please accept my deepest gratitude. Mr. Naruse has not mentioned in his letter what are the remaining ten pieces, and I beg to request you kindly to write me what they are and if possible, please send me their photos.

Again, availing on this opportunity, I beg to thank you for all troubles you have most willingly undertaken for me, and hoping that this will find you and all family members very well,

I remain, dear Sir,

Yours faithfully,

Kojiro Matsukata
