Dr. F. A. Weber 



Hönored Friend 



Your letter, dated just 11 months ago, I answer only today, 

 because only now can I talk with sone certainty about my trip to 

 Frankfurt.- You may have heard, that I did arrive in Europe, and re- 

 ceived sone news about ny travels through Mr. Bucrhinger. I can teil 

 you now, that I intend to go during February to Marseilles and Mont- 

 pellier, and that I will by end of February ^o to Paris. If you could 

 see us at one of these places,or, if I could look you up without too 

 much trouble, then this would be very dear to me and, hope füll y, fa- 

 vorable for our common scientific studies« 



On September 1.5 I wrote to Mr. B#chin.pcer, and told hin in a ge- 

 ner al way, that I hoped to see you this year in France, and, also, 

 gave hin addresses in Florence and Rone.but did not hear anything 

 further fron hin or you, It seens, that our corresponden.ee suffers 

 as much in Europe as in America l 



As I do not know, if you are still at Auxinjrfe, I again mail this 

 sheet to Mr. Buchinger, who , without doubt, is better inforned aboutr 

 your where-abouts than I, with the request, to forward it as soon as 

 possible to you. I do have your letter of February 25 in front of ne, 

 but cannot now ^o into the speeifics. I shared it at the tine with 

 Dr.Poselger in Berlin, who* se nane is surely familiär to yoii,and who 

 takes very much interest in your work and exaninations, and who spoke 

 of irettin^ in contact with you. Did he do so ? 



There is such a lorpr tine sin.ee ny last letter -to you (Jan. 27 , 

 18&8) and your answer, and the probability of a meeting is so rrreat, 

 that I do not wart to persue the scientific content of your letter. 

 All that can be discussed much better in person* 



Only that: Your expressed viewpoint: "de toucher le noins possible 

 aux di visions actuellenent admises* (to touch the least possible
