Dear !fir. Christensen: 
I hate to bother you about this matter after 
so long an interval but you will recall those two 
rather heavy parcel post packages you sent to me 
through the surface pouch. I paid the cost of 
shipping and for the life of me I cannot find 
that I wrote it down anywhere. I can guess at 
what they weigh and figure out the parcel post 
charges but if you have it noted down scsnewhere 
I would appreciate a reply by return mail. I want 
to enter the amount on my expense account because 
it is a perfectly legitimate chatrge. Don't woriy 
if you do not find it. Tour welcome at this end, 
idien you come, will be just as warm as ever. 
Please do not forget to let me have the name 
of the young man who is going to make the Nile 
trip. I think we met him in your office. I would 
like to get in touch with him about his experiences. 
Ky best to you and our mutual friends at the 
Bnbassy, 
Sincerely, 
Waldo L. Schmitt
