Your Ref.Ro.40Ul/lA-2(b) dated 5.3.37 . 
Sir, 
I have the honour to thank you for so kindly 
sending me such excellent specimens of Sone-ka-dat. 
As reported by Mr.R.E.Holttum in his letter to 
you of 11th August, the Sone-ka-dat proves to he 
identical with the Malayan Chempedak. And this 
/ 
/ 
appears to he the first record of the Chempedak north 
of Malaya# I have reason to helieve, however, that 
there is a glabrous variety of Chempedak in India 
hut that it is mistaken for a variety of Jack. I 
have not been able to get specimens of it. 
I have almost completed my paper on the Jack 
and Chempedak. It will give me great pleasure to 
acknowledge the assistance which you have so kindly 
given me* 
I have the honour to he. 
Sir, 
Your obedient servant.
