徐炳麟覆函先生，告中国大陆出口图书至香港、日本略有差异的原因。
3/1/61
守和先生：
一日惠示暨支票U. S. $31.39均收到，谢谢！
敝处业务蒙殷殷指示，具见关注，盛情至感，谨致万分敬意。
关于大陆新书能出口而在国会圕购书规定范围内者已尽量寄发，至于能出口而港澳发现有货时，亦设法在U. S. $25限额内购寄。日本同业经销大陆书亦系在港购，如大安、极东等。曾与港总经销之新民主出版社谈及，据云日本经销书不会比香港多，目录所列较多者，恐系将国际书店预订书目列上，实际许多不能出口，若真有日本有而港无，恐系走私货，而私自影印者。
今后大陆书无论能出口不能出口，当尽力搜罗，不负厚望。《中国历代书画家篆刻家字号索引》九月间已寄出，想已收到，并闻。敬请时祉。

罗家伦覆函先生，续聘先生为“国史馆”名誉采访，并告购买邮寄《故宫名画三百种》细节，另请先生与布莱克威尔书店核对寄书一种。
守和吾兄道鉴：
奉读十二月一日手教，敬悉种切。兹寄奉本馆本年聘书，续聘吾兄为名誉采访，务乞惠允，至深感纫！附上征集费空白收据六张，并希加章寄下。尊编《国父文献目录》，英文部份共有若干页？如在美以极廉价之方法印少数册，以备国内外与有关国父事迹者之参考，所费几何？尚乞见示，以便于国内印刷费用作一比较，因此间外汇亦甚不易也。弟必就力所能及为之。承费神代为影印之史料二种，至感贤劳。《故宫名画三百种》已向此间华国出版社购来，计新台币五千四百元正收条附上，除吾兄去年所存征集费四千五百元外，由弟垫付九百元，当在今年征集费内计算，请不必寄来。惟此书邮寄前，尚须办理免结汇手续，故日内尚不克付邮也。去年承吾兄为本馆搜集及代购之史料书籍多种，有劳清神，曷胜感谢！兹将寄下之收据八张，另附一清单，敬希核对。其中代向英国B. H. Blackwell订购之Jones etc.: The Far East 1942-1946一书，至今尚未寄到，不知是否因未写明本馆地址“2 Peiping Road”所致，曾向此间邮局查询，因不知寄件挂号号码，无法查到。可否请吾兄费神致函该书店一查，兹将发票及收据抄奉附副本一份，为托。耑此，敬颂道绥！

Dear Father Busch:
I am slow in thanking you for your recent letter and in making corrections on the proofs sent to me from the printer. Owing to my absence from Washington, I regret that I was not able to return the proofs earlier.
The appearance of a good bibliography on Japan necessitated a few minor changes. A note should be printed at the end of the article, and I shall rely on your help in final proof-reading.
Dr. Loewenthal and I have read the proofs and both of us wish to congratulate you for having chosen such a good printer. His work is most satisfactory.
As soon as the reprints are ready, will you send a few copies to libraries in Japan for me in addition to those I mentioned in my previous letter. There is no need to send copies to Communist China at this time.
With many thanks,
Yours sincerely,
Yuan Tung-li

莫余敏卿致函先生，称赞《西文汉学书目》具有极高的学术价值，并询问先生是否会编辑汉学期刊文章目录。
January 19, 1961
Dear Dr. Yuan,
Thank you and Mrs. Yuan for the box of delicious cookies you sent us. We are enjoying them every day. It was very thoughtful of you to remember us.
Our Library is getting along. Prof. Rudolph has been back. He bought some books for us from Formosa, Hong Kong and Japan.
The copy of your excellent bibliography, the China in Western Literature, in the Reference Room here is in great demand and many scholars find it most valuable.
Many people who are doing research work on China have asked me many times whether you are working on the periodical articles in Western languages. Since it involves such a tremendous amount of work, maybe you could ask some assistants, say 10 or 12 to work on different subjects under your direction. This way this monumental work may be finished in a comparatively short time. I am sure many people would be interested in seeing it done.
Are you going to attend the AAS annual meeting in Chicago this year? I understand S. Y. Chen is going but we are not going.
Again, with many thanks & best regards.
Yours sincerely,
M. Mok

客夏西城、加州、华府数度晤教，快慰良深。归来之后，琐事丛集，未克早日问候，罪甚！月初接诵大笺，欣悉尊况佳胜，而于敝所关注之切，尤为感荷。福特基金会代表去秋来台，数次恳谈，颇为具体。最近两月，继续函商，大致良好，看来可望有成。敝所修正计划已于周前邮去矣。谨以奉陈，以慰廑系。承询华会有关文电，已着人检查档卷，获得有关资料四件，另纸抄呈，用备参考。其中十二月卅一日电与大作所引，或系一事，惟字句稍有出入耳。彦堂先生接受韩国学位，事在一九五五年五月廿日，为文学博士，同时朱骝先、溥心畬（儒）二先生亦分别被授为法学博士，以是年四月，三先生应邀偕往讲学也。纽约之行，想甚愉快，润章、淬廉诸公曾否见到？日前淬廉兄来信，谓月内即去夏威夷大学，为期半年。檀岛风光宜人，于淬廉兄健康当大有裨益。华府师友，得便希代问好，光清先生处尤祈多为致意。专此敬复，并颂俪福，不一。

元任先生、夫人：
连奉赐书，至为感谢。为月涵捐助事，各方虽在进行，但距离尚远。昨接“顾大使”来函，除捐百元外，并谓已与廷黻兄商议，将来或须请“教部”建议于中基会在清华息金项下，提出若干作为月涵养老及医药费等项之用，惟须到本年九月间方能提出，如此则兄、嫂亦不必捐助太多也。兹在Proceedings of Symposia in Applied Mathematics十二卷内拜读大著，至为钦佩，如有单行本并盼检寄壹份是盼。进行中之大著两种均系不朽之作，贤劳可想，尚希两位格外节劳。草此，敬颂俪祺。

February 6, 1961
Dear Mr. Fugh:
In the long history of Yenching, some honorary degrees were conferred upon Chinese scholars. As Dr. Stuart has a wonderful memory, I wonder if you could ask him the names of those who have been thus honored.
I seem to remember that Dr. C. T. Wang was one of those receiving an honorary degree from Yenching, but I may be wrong. Dr. Edwards in his history of Yenching, did not mention any honorary degrees.
I trust that Dr. Stuart is keeping well despite this cold weather. Kindly give him my best wishes for his health.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Dr. Yuan:
I am glad to receive your letter of February 16, 1961 together with the photostat material enclosed therein. I find it most interesting to refresh my memory after more than 30 years. You must have spent much time looking it up.
In the past few months, I have been looking over some source material relating to my part in the work of the League of Nations. It is time consuming but serves to recall many things which I have entirely forgotten.
You are very kind in continuing your effort to search material of the kind you have just sent me. I can understand the slowness of the Photoduplication Service of the Library of Congress in filling orders, as I think the amount of work demanded of it must be tremendous.
With warm personal regards and best wishes,

Dear Professor Yuan,
Referring to my letter of February 24, 1960, we were now able to secure one copy of the publication: P. J. Skachkov, Bibliografiya Kitaya, which I instructed our Library to mail to your address.
Wishing you a further success in your work, I remain, Dear Professor Yuan,
Very truly yours,
J. Průšek

顾维钧致函先生，请协助查找有关其早年在北洋政府出任外交事务的相关文献记录。
April 2, 1961
Dr. Yuan:
Recently reminiscing about my first years of public service in the President's Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Peking, I tried to make some notes about the several important negotiations in which I was specially instructed to take a part. But I am unable to find some relevant documents or data here.
I. In 1912 or 1913, the Russian minister suddenly one day presented Mr. M. T. Liang, Foreign Minister, with a document outlining three demands concerning Mongolia. The minister was so indignant not only at the nature of the demands but also at the high-handed manner and the threatening language of the minister that as a protest he resigned his post. Could you find the date of this interview and the text of the demands? The memorandum was kept secret at the time but was published later.
II. In 1921-4 Great Britain kept pressing China to settle the Tibetan question. Sir John Jordan, considering himself a personal friend of President Yuan Shih-kai, preferred to negotiate directly with him. As Secretary to the President as well as of the Foreign Ministry, I was designated by him to interpret and take notes of their interviews and frequently sent by him to interview Sir John at his Legation. As an outcome, Mr. Chen Yi, a veteran diplomat versed in the Tibetan question, was sent to Shimla to conclude a definitive agreement defining the boundaries between China and Tibet. He spent several months there. He referred back and forth to certain difficult points of delimitation, but one day he suddenly initialed a draft agreement without authorization. President Yuan was so displeased and angry that he dismissed Chen to the protest of the British Government. Could you find out the date of this incident and the text of the initialed document? Recently the Indian Government again referred to this alleged agreement as one of the grounds in support of India's case in the negotiations with Communist China concerning her claims in the dispute over the boundary with Tibet.
III. The notorious 21 demands were presented by Japan in January, 1915. I was designated as one of the members of the Chinese delegation headed by the Foreign Minister, but on objection by the Japanese Minister I was not appointed to it actually. Instead, I was directed to work on the question closely with our delegation and to take charge of keeping in contact with the friendly Legations in Peking and with publicity abroad. Consequently, I had numerous interviews particularly with Dr. Paul S. Reinsch, U. S. Minister, both for informing Washington and getting its views. The most pernicious 5th Group was in due course published abroad, and this publicity aroused a wave of protest from Tokyo and indignation from the friendly Powers in our favor. On May 4, 1915 Japan presented to China the now well-known ultimatum for acceptance of the negotiated terms within 48 hours. I was asked to study its contents and draft a reply. This I did in the German Hospital where I had been confined for influenza with a high temperature. The draft was readily approved by the Government, though the paragraph relating to the Fifth Group was softened on the suggestion of the Japanese educated secretary of our Delegation after seeing the Japanese Minister. I was convinced of the need of an official statement by the Government to explain the course of the negotiations and its reasons for accepting the ultimatum to the people of China and to the world at large. This I did by dictating all night a text to William H. Donald and it was typed by his assistant Mr. Pratt, both representing at the time The Times of London. Could you find a copy of the ultimatum and China's reply for me? I think they were both inserted in the Memorandum on the Twenty-One Demands submitted to the Versailles Peace Conference in 1919 as one of China's Desiderata.
IV. During the period of May, 1912-August, 1915 when I was first Secretary and then Counsellor of the Foreign Ministry, the Foreign Minister was changed four or five times either as result of Cabinet reshuffle or due to resignation. Could you find the names of these Foreign Ministers and the dates of their respective appointment? I would also appreciate a list of the Cabinet changes with their composition and the dates of such changes.
I am afraid I have raised too many questions. There is, however, no hurry to get the material. If you would be good enough to make some research in your spare moments, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanking you in advance and with cordial personal regards,
Yours sincerely,
V. K. Wellington Koo

Liang即梁如浩（1863-1941），原名滔昭，字如浩，号孟亭、梦亭，广东香山人，清末民初外交官。1912年11月8日，俄国驻华公使库平斯基（Крупенский В.Н.）偕翻译将与库伦当局签署的《俄蒙协约》及其附约《俄蒙商务专条》告知梁如浩，后者坚决反对并辞职。Sir John Jordan即朱迩典爵士（1852-1925），英国外交家，曾任英国驻华公使。Mr. Chen Yi应指陈贻范（1870-1919），字安生，江苏苏州人，清末民初外交官，顾维钧此处似有笔误；Shimla即西姆拉，印度喜马偕尔邦的首府。one day he suddenly initialed a draft agreement应指1914年4月27日，this alleged agreement即所谓的“西姆拉条约”。Dr. Paul S. Reinsch即芮恩施（1869-1923），美国外交官；William H. Donald即端纳（1875-1946），澳大利亚人，英国《泰晤士报》记者，先后担任孙中山、张学良、宋美龄等人的私人顾问，如顾维钧所言，在1915年他首先揭露日本“二十一条”，引起世界范围的强烈反响，并引发倒袁运动。

钱存训覆函先生，告知在亚洲学会年会中的见闻，并谈其博士论文已获匿名审查通过，将由芝加哥大学出版社出版。
守和先生：
奉到四月六日手教，敬悉一一。周前亚洲学会年会未见大驾到此参加，甚觉怅怅。中国同仁与会者虽亦不少，然东西两岸来者似并不太多，图书馆之会参加者亦有限，裘开明因病未来，会中闻Frankel将去Yale，李田意亦回耶鲁，柳无忌将去Indiana，Hucker去Michigan（Oakland），Nunn应夏威夷之聘任assoc. prof. of Japanese & Director of Asian History，此事为去年夏大曾来相聘者（正教授名义），Nunn君颇喜连络推广工作，想甚合宜也。闻英国Pearson所编之《西文论华什志索引》Index Sinicus即将出版，如谭君之作迟不问世，恐将全功尽弃矣。闻大著《留美博士论文目录》即将出版，搜罗宏富，不胜钦佩，此间正编一芝大有关远东论文目录与哥大所编者相仿，有关中国者计180种，约有博士二十四种，硕士55种为中国人所作，想前者均已收入大作矣。所询章珍馨女士已与一美国人结婚（亦系芝大Ph. D化学系），名Sheldon Kaufman（全名可在LC目录一查），现在Princeton教书，章则在Brookhaven（?）National Lab.研究也。黄仁华（黄嘉音之妹）似未结婚，现在一Ohio某大学教书也。梁远则并未写博士论文，伊现任某广告公司副经理，大约无意于学位矣。又，训之论文前交此间Press审查，该处曾请二人先后审阅，评语均甚好（其中之一似系中国人或系杨联陞，惟出版部未将姓名相告），故允予出版，但须津贴，现正由图书馆学校商洽津贴数额之中。大约可无问题，因学校已通过列入Univ. of Chicago Studies of Library Science丛书之内，并允加资助也。匆匆不赘，即请大安。

陈可忠覆函先生，告知无法追忆某学生中文姓名，并谈梅贻琦病情及清华大学（新竹）近况。
守和先生赐鉴：
前奉手示，敬悉一是。关于何君中文名，虽经忠尽力记忆及查询，仍无法记起。何君系檀香山土生，平时总是以Ellert Ho相称呼，彼从未以中文名见示（第一次见面时，可能曾问过，现在已无法记起），此君为人颇怪，不喜与吾人交谈，闻回檀香山后任教职，已去世多年矣。辱承垂询，无以报命，至歉。
月涵师病体日渐康复，现在精神甚好，惟两足软弱，故遵医嘱仍在台大附属医院疗养中。清华原子科学研究所自创办至今，将近五年，毕业生第一、二、三，三届达五十人，多数出国续求深造，其中回国返校服务者五人。清华目前最困难问题仍为缺乏良好之师资。月涵师出国三次，孙观汉先生回国两次，仍无法解决此问题。幸校内同仁颇能通力合作，故学校各方面建设及施为，尚能按照计划进行，而来校参观之外国专家，亦均寄以莫大之同情与希望。原子炉之安装及炉房之建造已全部竣工，日内（三五日内）即可开始运转。此为中国科学界一大事，想先生亦必乐于预知此一消息也。兹另邮寄上《清华概况》二册，以供参考。
一九四八年，忠奉命赴粤接长中山大学校长，继忠接任编译馆馆长之赵士卿君，胆小而无识，致编译馆全部人员及资料均沦散，真为可惜。后“国立编译馆”在台重新办起，其中编订名词工作，仍系由忠继续主持，数年来已有相当成就。素知先生对此一项工作，甚为关怀，谨此附闻。顺颂时祺。

April 13, 1961
Dear Mr. Morkill:
From your last letter I am delighted to know that you have been serving as Chairman of the Kensington Borough Council Public Libraries Committee and you have been building a new Central Library in a traditional style. Hearty congratulations!
It happened that I used to live very near your present address when I attended University College almost forty years ago. I should like so much to revisit London and meet so many of my old friends there. As to the building of the Peking National Library, it was built in 1931. Now it has been enlarged considerably under the Communists, but my old staff have all remained and still active.
For some time, I have been collecting data for a Guide to doctoral dissertations by Chinese students in Great Britain. Over 400 dissertations have been cited and the Guide could be published in the autumn. As I am in need of support, I wonder if you think it to ask for a small grant from the Universities'China Committee, or the China Institute in London as you see fit. I shall be grateful to have your advice and suggestions, so that it could be published as soon as the editorial work is completed. I now enclose a brief statement.
With cordial regards,
Yours sincerely,
T. L. Yuan
P. S. I have never received the annual report 1955-56 and the ensuing issues which you were kind enough to send to me. Could you send me another set?

守和博士先生尊鉴：
敬启者，日昨拜奉华翰，敬聆种切。关于寄粮包至大陆接济亲友，已成惯例。晚现在每月付出粮包款项要七八十元，是救济在广州之堂嫂与堂弟等，皆可得收无误，亦有三四个月之久。最近两三月则可寄连关税及运费在内之粮包，系由在港各大陆食品公司办理，如寄生油一公斤（每种数量之最低限度），在港交八元七角（时价不同多种或数量类推）则由代运公司发回领取证一张，将该证用挂号邮寄至收件人，收到后隔十二天（前时只七天而已，是广州计），持该证到指定地点领取（广州在华侨旅运社收），则无须再付其他费用。但广东省以外加收运费，如江苏省则每公斤加一元六角，各省不同，并时日需多几天。粮食包可代运者只普通食品，如油、糖、豆、粉、麦片、花生肉等，罐头食物则有勒吐精奶粉、炼奶、阿华田、鸡肉、猪牛肉、火腿等，至维他命丸是属于药品，公司不能代运。如交邮局寄去，未知可能准入口否？如能收到，亦必须纳税，因凡由邮局寄发各物等，皆要收件人纳税，不是完税者，但寄付人则可不必多付款项也。闻由邮局寄收到之时间比代运公司较为迟滞也。此乃大概情形，谨以奉闻。普仁斯顿大学代表MOTE教授尚未见其来接洽，晚有到美领馆询问，亦不得要领，因渠如不到馆登记报到，则无法知其住址，惟有听其自然而已。嘱查张弼士等生卒年月一事，颇为困难，因该五人皆非本港人，甚至港大亦无记录，惟晚所知张弼士、张耀轩、陆佑（俱是前清南洋富商）皆已去世许久，至苏开文尚年幼，则不知也。云南白药已购得一小瓶，价银二元，但原装玻璃圆瓶投寄不方便，故将其倒出用蜡纸包好，由航空邮奉上。如得收后，敬希示知为幸。尊账前存二十七。三五元，上次与今次航邮费共四元，白药二元，共六元，比对尚存二十一。三五元在晚处也。匆匆，拜俟续陈。专此，敬请撰安。

Dear Dr. Yuan:
My husband and I will be paying a very brief private visit to our friends in Washington and hope to visit the Library of Congress on Friday, 5th May, and would very much like to drop in to your office for a few minutes if this will be possible. I have written to Miss Morsch that she will call at about 10.30 a. m. and to Dr. Beal that we will be in the Orientalia section about 11 a. m. I believe you are in another division now but we will find out where you are when we arrive.
I think I wrote to you last year that we were leaving Hong Kong and planning to spend a year or two in the States. We are both at Columbia for the time being. We will give you our news when we meet, we hope next Friday.

Dear Dr. Yuan:
It was a great pleasure to meet you again last week. My husband and I both wish to thank you for your hospitality. We enjoyed our brief visit to Washington immensely, I am so glad that the city was looking beautiful for my husband's first glimpse of it.
Your kind letter and Dr. Wu's were both here when we returned. I should have given you a little more notice.
I have written to Hong Kong to ask the Registrar to send you a catalogue of the University, unfortunately I omitted to bring even one with me.
For the directory of the Sino-British Club in Hong Kong, as my husband suggested, it would be a good idea to write to Mr. James Liu. He is leaving for Honolulu in late July or August, but you could suggest he passes your letter on to the Secretary, who it is this year I don't know. His name, by the way, is刘若愚（君智）.
I hope it won't be thirteen years before you and my husband meet again!
With best wishes from us both,

My dear Dr. Yuan:
Your letter of 13th April, addressed to Mr. Morkill, was passed on to “the Experts Committee” of the UCC, whose chairman I am. When considering your application at its meeting of yesterday's date, the Committee was not clear whether you wanted a travel grant or a subsidy towards publication, and I undertook to write to you to clear up this matter. As you will realize it would not be possible to make a decision concerning the publication without the manuscript.
May I take this opportunity to thank you also on my part for the most charming way you received Harry when he called on you and for devoting so much time to him. I myself hope to “look in” sometime during the session 1961/62 as I shall be in Toronto as from 1st October for a session as a visiting professor. I was in Paris for a fortnight in April, and though I was unable to see Madame Mozère I understood that she is now divorced. She had to undergo an operation some time ago, but everything seems to have gone well. One of her children is at the École des Langues Vivantes Orientales.
With very kind regards also for Mrs. Yuan, in which my wife joins me,
Yours very sincerely,
W. Simon

May 25, 1961
Dear Father Busch:
The Joint Committee on Contemporary China of the American Council of Learned Societies and the Social Science Research Council has asked me to publish a larger bibliography of Russian Works on China. To enable me to publish it at the earliest moment, the Committee has given me a publication subsidy.
In this work, I hope I may have your permission to incorporate the items already published in the Monumenta Serica last year. If so, I shall put it in a foot-note at an appropriate place.
As soon as it is published, I shall present a copy to your Editorial Board. It is possible that Dr. Loewenthal may like to write up a book-review for your valued journal.
As to the reprints of my article on Russian Works on Japan, I only received three copies by air two months ago. The copies to be mailed by ordinary mail have not yet been received. I shall be grateful if you could check with your printer, as several scholars have asked for them.
Thanking you again for your courtesy,
Yours sincerely,

Dear Dr. Yuan:
Thank you for your kind note of the 24th, and also for your thoughtfulness in securing an invitation for me for the preview of the Chinese Art exhibition. I managed to spend two hours at the opening of Friday afternoon, and was happy to renew my acquaintances with some of the masterpieces as well as my T'ai-chung friends, Messrs. Li, T'an and Na. I was sorry not to have found you there.
I have enclosed a list of my publications along with a reprint of one of my recent articles. I am afraid that this is the best I can do now, as I am all out of other reprints. I am going to be away from Princeton for a year on a Guggenheim fellowship, but Dr. Cheng Te-k'un of Cambridge University will be here as a visiting professor to take care of the special Chinese Art and Archaeology Program for me. I am sure that you are acquainted with his three recent volumes on Chinese archaeology（Archaeological Studies in Szechwan, Cambridge 1957; Prehistoric China, Cambridge 1959; Shang China, Cambridge 1960）. You can reach him through this department after the first of September.
As I have to finish a manuscript before leaving for Japan and Hong Kong sometime in late September, we are going to be in Princeton all summer. My wife and I would be delighted if you and Mrs. Yuan could arrange to visit Princeton for a weekend and stay with us. It would give me great pleasure to show you our museum collection and teaching facilities in the Chinese art field.
With best wishes for an early meeting.
Cordially yours,

Dear Mr. Yuan:
We are glad to hear that you are composing a comprehensive bibliography of Russian Works on China, and have, of course, no objection to your making use of the bibliography which you published.
Months ago, we have conducted our printer to make the offprints of your article on Russian Works on Japan. I am glad that you received at least the three air-mail copies for which you had asked. We are asking the printer once more to make the rest of the offprints as soon as possible. In any case it would not be very long any more since the whole issue will—at last—be out in the near future.
With best wishes and kind regards,
Sincerely yours,

June 7, 1961
Dear Dr. Koo:
I must apologize for the delay in answering your recent letter. There is only one complete set of the Chinese Government Gazette in the Library of Congress which was sent to the bindery and detained there for several months. Last week when it was bound, I looked for the information about the cabinet changes taking place between 1912 and 1915. The enclosed list indicates only a few members of each cabinet. If you wish to have a full list, please let me know.
It was Krupenskii who presented to Mr. M. T. Liang with a document outlining three demands: There is a full account of these negotiations in a Russian document I wanted someone to translate it for you, but everyone seemed to have been fully occupied these days, so I am enclosing an excerpt from Peter. S. H. Tang's book which is well documented.
Other documents you wanted are being reproduced and I shall mail them to you as soon as ready.（Such as the Tibetan question and the 21 demands）
In this connection, I may add that the National Archives in Washington has reproduced on microfilms the Department of State relating to China, 1910-1929. I have already ordered a set for the Academia Historica at Taipei and if you need them, you may suggest to the Librarian of the Peace Palace at the Hague to buy a complete set.
The first Chinese who received the Ph. D. degree from Columbia was the late Dr. Yen Chin-yung whose dissertation was entitled: Rights of citizens and persons under the Fourteenth Amendment submitted in 1905. If you happen to know his Chinese name, will you let me know?
Yours sincerely,

I have been informed by Dr. W. Simon that the Experts Committee of the U. C. C. has recommended the award of a grant of ￡180.0.0. to enable me to compile a Guide of Doctoral Dissertations by Chinese Students in Britain. It is a great honour indeed to have received such a grant and I shall be most grateful if you could convey my heart-felt thanks to members of the U. C. C.
It is my hope that the Guide will not only serve as a permanent record of the scholastic achievements of Chinese students in British universities, but it would also reflect the excellent training which the learned faculties in these universities have given to them.
As soon as payment for this grant can be arranged, please send your cheque to the Barclay's Bank, Marylebone Branch, London, W. 1. for the credit of my account there. A letter to this Bank is enclosed for your convenience.
It was very sweet of you to send me a copy of your article published on the occasion of the opening of your new Public Library in Kensington. Your remark about the Peking Library was especially appreciated.

I am deeply grateful to you for your letter of 7th June and for your recommendation for a grant from U. C. C. Will you convey my hearty thanks to other members of the Experts Committee? I feel sure that without the recommendations of your Committee, no favorable action could have been taken.
In accordance with your suggestion, I have written to Mr. Morkill, suggesting that when the amount of the grant is available, a cheque should be sent to the Barclay's Bank for the credit of my account there.
I wrote to you about the Exhibition of Chinese Art Treasures held in Washington. An illustrated catalogue has just been issued, a copy of which I take pleasure in presenting to you. It is being mailed by surface mail, and I hope you and Mrs. Simon would enjoy it.
I presume that Harry has left for Melbourne and will enjoy the work of organizing a new department there. To-day I had a visit from Miss Bishop, Librarian of the Oriental Collection at Canberra which is to be one of the important centers for Asiatic studies in that part of the world. She is making the necessary contact here and will reap a good harvest out of this trip. She is keenly interested in enlarging the Oriental Collection at Canberra and her efforts will be successful, I am sure.

Dear Dr. Yuan,
Your letter was forwarded to me just at the time when my wife was being hospitalized for an operation and when I was soon going up into N. Y. State for my 50th Reunion（Class of 1911）at Hamilton College. So, I failed to reply and beg your pardon for this long delay.
Even now I can find no trace of Dr. Wu Tse-kao. The only possible suggestions I can think of would be to write to Ohio State where the Chinese characters might be inscribed on his Ph. D. thesis 1941. The former secretary of our Hangchow Alumni in New York City is Dr. Sai-lung Pan, 620 W. 149th St., New York 31, N. Y. He might have a clue to follow. Here is the name and old address（as of 1951）of one of our Hangchow Alumni in Hong Kong:
Chow T'ien-Chen
China Photo Supplies Co.
5 Wellington St., Hong Kong
who might put you in touch with Wu Tse-kao.
I think T. J. Ku never submitted a final draft of his thesis and never actually got his Columbia Ph. D. degree.
Sorry my information is so meager.
My book won't be off press until fall.
Very sincerely,

Dear Dr. Yuan,
My husband & I regret so much that the short duration of our stay in Washington did not permit us to meet. We have the happiest recollections of our visit to the Library of Congress last year, and of seeing you. My husband is now engaged in writing a book on the Ko Ku Yao Lun, which may well sum to perhaps three octavo or two great volumes. For such an undertaking he will naturally have to have all the information on the subject that may be available.
Your world-wide & almost fabulous knowledge of Chinese bibliography, prompts him to ask you what may be a very simple question. He wishes to know the year in which Wang Tso, the compiler of the augmented version of the Chinese work in question, died.
We will be most grateful to you for this piece of information, which will of course be duly acknowledged.
With our kind regards and best wishes,
Yours sincerely,

Dear Dr. Yuan:
I wish to acknowledge receipt of your letter of June 7, 1961 with enclosures and more recently a roll of photostats relating to the question of Outer Mongolia. They are most useful and just what I needed.
As regards the State Department microfilm records relating to China, I shall keep your suggestion in mind and try to approach the Peace Palace Librarian with it, though I know the funds for new documents and books are also rather limited.
I recall that Dr. Yen Chin-yung's Chinese name is严锦荣，though I am not sure. I believe his Chinese name may be found along with his English name in his dissertation. In any case the美洲日报of New York must have carried a report of his receiving the Ph. D. in June 1905.
Enclosed please find a check for $100 to meet the incidental expenses of typing and making photostats, as I am certain that a similar sum sent some time ago must have been exhausted long ago.
With many thanks for your help and hoping I can continue to reply on your valuable assistance,
Yours sincerely,
V. K. Wellington Koo

先生覆函Sheila David，告知虽多方查找《格古要论》增补者王佐的卒年，但仍未获得确切时间，另谈正在编纂“中国艺术目录”，并请寄来大维德爵士有关中国艺术的著述目录。
June 26, 1961
Dear Lady David:
Since receiving your recent letter, I have done some research concerning the year of death of Wang Tso who Sir Percival is especially interested. The first reference book I consulted is the Index to 89 Ming dynasty biographies . As he was not listed there, it indicates that his biography was not recorded in any of the 89 biographies. I then looked up the Gazetteer of Chi-an of Kiangsi province which is his native city. Failing to find him there, I searched him in the Index to the biographies of the Twenty-Five Histories which as you know is also a useful tool. Although there are many references of persons of the same name, this particular person was not listed. All we do know is that he was also known by his courtesy name K'ung-ts'ai as noted in the preface to the Ko Ku Yao-lun.
I am particularly delighted to know that Sir Percival's monumental work on his treatise is nearing completion. Hearty congratulations! It is an important piece of research which the scholarly world has been waiting. You can well imagine how anxious I look forward to its publication.
You may be interested to know that I have been engaged in a comprehensive bibliography of Chinese art. The first part contains entirely Western literature with special emphasis on periodical articles. Hidden in unexpected places and fugitive in character, they are more important than monographs. It will take another year before the whole work is completed.
In view of the high cost of printing in America and in view of its limited interest, I shall arrange to publish the bibliography in several arts, such as Pottery and Porcelain, Painting, Bronzes, Sculpture, Architecture and Landscape Gardening, Minor Arts, etc. etc.
When you return to London, I hope you would be so kind as to send me a complete list of articles which you and Sir Percival have written on Chinese art. I have already included a number of these articles, but I should like to have a complete listing of articles as well as monographs.
Please convey our best wishes to Sir Percival for his health and scholarly achievements.
Sincerely,
T. L. Yuan

Dear Dr. Yuan:
Your letter has been forwarded to me by my wife. I have immediately written two letters to assist you in securing the information you are seeking. I hope you will get results from them. If not, will you please let me know so that I can try some other means through the president or other higher officers.
I am writing a book on the Taiping Rebellion within three months. At first, I thought that I might be able to get to make a quick trip to Washington, New York, and elsewhere to round up source materials about the Taiping Rebellion. Now I think that I will not have time to do this. If you happen to know of any Russian material apart from what is listed in your catalogue, I should be most grateful to receive this information.
Respectfully yours,

Dear Dr. Yuan:
For some time I have been considering the idea of publishing a Chinese edition of my memoirs and I am glad to know that you recommend it, too. One difficulty, I am afraid, is the fact that the documentary material for it is so scattered that the task of gathering it in a fairly comprehensive manner may take much time and work. But no one is more competent and experienced than yourself. It would be an excellent idea if you could start to collect the essential material. Only the other day in connection with the Columbia University Chinese oral history project I came across many documents in the China Year Book of 1923-24 regarding the Lin Cheng incident, the Weihaiwei case, the Gold Franc question and the Sino-Soviet negotiations for an agreement. They are of course all in English and some of the translations done by the editors are rather poor. But they give a hint as to where the original texts might be found.
I have often heard from mutual friends of Mr. L. S. Liu as a scholar good in both English and Chinese, and he will certainly be competent and undertake the task as you have suggested. Since I am coming to Washington in mid-September to attend the annual meeting of the China Foundation, I hope to have an opportunity of seeing you and discussing the idea together and the possible arrangement for the execution. I should like very much to be guided by what you consider necessary or advisable, before I reach any decision about it.
Looking forward to seeing you soon and with warm personal regards,
Yours sincerely,
V. K. Wellington Koo

Dear Dr. Yuan:
Many thanks for your letter of Sept. 6 and your book RUSSIAN WORKS ON JAPAN. It is certainly very useful to us and we shall have it properly catalogued and made available to all researchers.
I am very sorry to tell you that I have not been able to find the Chinese names of the three ministers mentioned in your letter. There is no directory for Chinese ministers anywhere. If we know their denominations, we may ask the headquarters of these denominations for information. Without denomination, it is almost impossible to find their names unless they are very prominent.
Under separate cover, I am sending you a copy of the CURRENT PERIODICALS IN THE MISSIONARY RESEARCH LIBRARY which I compiled not long ago. I hope it will be of some interest to you.
By the way I wish to tell you that I am leaving for Ithaca in two weeks. I shall be working as Chinese Bibliographer-Cataloguer at Cornell University Library with the responsibility to build up its Chinese collections. My new address after Sept. 24 will be:-
John T. Ma
Cornell University Library
Ithaca, N. Y.
Since you are the leader in this field of Chinese librarianship, I would certainly appreciate your advice and support in my new job.
With my best regards,
Sincerely,
John. T. Ma
Associate Librarian

敬肃者，十三日手示到时，璧尚在假中，因他事所阻，未能即时去总馆查明“曾瑊益”其人，至以为歉！今日业已恢复工作，乃得机耑往总馆检查，全馆总目录暨博士论文专目（系按年序列），均已查过，不幸未能查得曾君其人。璧所查者，系under Tseng及Cheng二字，以及一九五〇至一九六一年，各组中均未见有与“曾瑊益”三字相近者。未识曾君如何拼个人姓名，并其毕业年份何年，倘能将此二点明了，则查找较为简易耳。
中华文物在纽约展览，业经往观一次，觉字画至为精美，其他实物未免过少而已。但闻李霖灿兄见示，始知运送困难，实物未能多选，此亦不得已之事耳。得便欢迎先生来纽，俾亲训诲。余言不尽，敬颂崇安！

My Dear Dr. Yüan,
I wish to ask a favor of you and hope that your reply to my inquiry will be in the affirmative.
As you will know, I have been engaged in the production of a History of Chinese Art and Letters for some time past. In addition to my own work（which will not be inconsiderable, since it will be my own book）this will include a good many special articles on special subjects by a number of specialists, who will total more than a score. Amongst them you will find many familiar names, I am sure.
In the U. S. there will be at least I hope Mr. George Yeh, Li Ling-tsan, Archibald Wenley, and Aschwin Lippe. I would like very much to include you. The subject may be of your own choosing（biographical I would prefer），the book on which the great part of the work will hang being the Ko ku yao lun. I have done the translation and the interpretation of the difficult technical jargon of both the 1388 3 chapters edition & the 1462（not 1459, as originally believed）editions, a number of special articles by me（done）an appreciation of a number of topics, mostly done, a title “A discussion of the Essential Criteria of Chinese Antiquities），” a Dedication（done），a Preface（done），Introduction（done）□□□□（very, very difficult I have found this）done. Your subject may be as I have said of your own choice. It may be things or subjects Chinese, Mongol, □□□□□□□□ or et cetera. The only limitations are
1.The subjects touched may not be later in date than 1485.
2.The article should be in my hands by the first week in February 1962.
I sincerely hope I may have the pleasure & privilege of welcoming you within our charmed □□□□ circle.
With our warmest greetings and with every good wish, I am
Yours very sincerely,
Percival David
P. S. I should have added the name of Dr. Wen Fong who has done an admirable article on “Copies & fakes in Chinese painting” to have said that of course every such article will appear over the contributor's name. P. D.

My dear Yuan,
Thank you very much for your letter of September 30.
I am glad and grateful to know that you have written to Professors Wu and Li on my behalf and anything from their pen that does not run absolutely counter to my views（which I think would be most unlikely）will be very welcome. But they and their contributions will not excuse you. You must contribute something of your own choice. But it be anything. The book I am doing is by no means limited in its scope to Chinese Art. It includes literature and subjects as diverse as music and architecture, paintings and calligraphy, silk and jades, ceramics and bronzes, lacquer and horn. So, I am not going to let you off-you say you are at present tied up with a bibliography of Chinese Art? Nothing, but nothing, could possibly be more welcome than that for my book. So, I shall be counting on you to be one of 36 other collaborators. You ask Lady David for a list of my publications. I have never done a book but what I have published are listed in Pope's Chinese Porcelains from the Ardebil Shrine, p. 165. Counting on your collaboration. With every good wish for us both.
Yours very sincerely
Percival David

I am not afraid of Chinese characters, the more the merrier. They will all be reproduced in one form or another in a Glossary. In case I have not told you this already, □□□□ when you send in your contribution, you will be in distinguished company.

Dear Sir David:
Thank you so much for your cable and your recent letters. I should like so much to comply with your request, but as I am so much tied up with other work, I do not have much energy left especially when I have to work eight hours daily for the Library of Congress.
However, in view of your significant service to the history of art, I shall compile a bibliography of Ming ceramics which you may like to include it at the end of the volume. If the entries are too many for your purpose, we could limit it to early Ming-up to 1485. Since it will be limited to books and articles in western languages, the number of Chinese characters would not be very large.
My larger work-the Bibliography of Chinese art and archaeology would not be ready until 1963. When the times for its publication, I shall, of course, seek your advice again. Perhaps your Foundation may like to sponsor it as one of your monograph series.
With all good wishes and cordial regards,

Dear Professor Li:
Sir Percival David, 53 Gordon Square, London, W. C. 1, has repeatedly asked me to contribute an essay on Chinese art to be included in his latest work on Chinese Art and Letters. As I am now tied up with a bibliography on Chinese art and archaeology, I suggested that you should be asked to contribute a scholarly essay. I recommended you to him in the highest terms and I think he may have written to you already.
As he is to publish his translation of the on which he has worked for many years, he is anxious that the subject of the essay may not be later in date than 1483. Also, the essay should be in his hands in February, 1962. It is my hope that you will comply with his request if you hear from him.
My bibliography on Chinese art and archaeology will not be published until the end of next year. If you could send me a list of your papers and available reprints, I shall be grateful.
With cordial regards,
Yours sincerely,

October 23, 1961
Dear Dr. Yuan:
Thanks for your letter of October 14. I am very much honored by your suggesting my name to Sir Percival David as a possible contributor to his work on Chinese Art and Letters. However, I have not yet heard from him and I doubt that he will write me, since we have never met and since he has probably never heard of me. On the other hand, I have been very much tied up by the preparation of a lengthy article on Chao Meng-fu for the Artibus Asiae which I hope to finish by Christmas. That actually does not leave very much time to do another one. As a matter of fact, I have just been asked to do a short article on a painting by P'u-ming for the Oberlin Museum bulletin. All these mean that there is not much time to do anything else before February 1962.
I am very much interested in your bibliography on Chinese art and archaeology and hope that it will be completed soon. I am now offering a course called “seminar on Sung and Yuan Painting.” Right from the start, I found that I needed a good bibliography. Your book will certainly fill the need.
As far as my own publications are concerned, the list is very short. I was a student of Western art, and moved into Chinese art only in recent years. The list includes:
“Recent History of the Palace Collection,” Archives of the Chinese Art Society of America, XII, 1958, pp. 61-75.
“Rocks and Trees and the art of Ts'ao Chih-po,” Artibus Asiae, XXIII, 3/4, 1960, pp. 153-208.（This is also issued as a monograph, a prospectus of which I include herewith for your use）
I am sorry that no more reprints are available. Those for the monograph have been in such great demand from my friends and scholars that I have to disappoint many of them.
Glad to hear from you, reminding me of the pleasure of meeting you in Maryland last May. My best regards to you.
Sincerely,
Chu-tsing Li

October 26, 1961
Dear Dr. Yuan:
Thank you very much indeed for your letter of October 1st. I thought that I was going to see Professor Fong of Princeton during my scheduled visit to New York last week and discuss Sir Percival David's book, but at the last moment he could not come to New York and told me over the phone that he was not certain about his contribution to it either. I am afraid I would have to hear directly from Sir Percival before I could decide whether a contribution from me would be appropriate. On the other hand, I am most interested in your bibliography on Chinese art and indeed look forward most eagerly to seeing it.
An article by me on Tung Ch'i-ch'ang will appear in Arthur Wright's fifth volume on Confucianism. My book, Tung Ch'i-ch'ang: the Man, his Times and his Landscape Painting, is scheduled to be submitted to press, I hope, sometime next summer. My other writings, all not very important but some of which have become rather well-liked, I hope to send by separate mail in a few days. Depending on the cutting off date of your bibliography, I may have a few items slightly more important to add.
On the subject of publication, I had a strange experience with the American copyright law in 1958-59 when I published my novel Wei-yang Ko（未央歌）under my pen name Lu Ch'iao（鹿桥）. It was impossible to get the book printed in this country as it was 600 pages long even using the new No. 5 type, and involves perhaps the largest vocabulary since the new literary movement of 1919. The fact that I published it in Hong Kong deprived me of copyright protection in this country. Within a few months of its publication, one pirated edition appeared in Taiwan, and recently in a newspaper announcement there I read an apology from a publisher known as I-ming Book Store（一鸣书局）to my distributor the Asian Press（亚洲出版社）for this illegal act. Here I learned that actually two pirated editions had been put on the market, each under a different name（未央曲，及星月悠扬）. I have been able to purchase two copies of one of these editions and shall begin to look for the other soon. Let me first present you with a copy of the authentic first edition. The mutilation of the book by the Taiwan publishers and the corners they cut can be easily discovered by comparison. However, until I can get hold of more copies, I rather treasure the souvenir copies I have been able to acquire. This anecdote, of course, has nothing to do with your compilation of bibliography, but I think it might amuse you.
Now that my second edition is about to be printed, a translation of it into English is quite likely. I wonder whether I can have at least the translation rights protected. Do we respect the copyright of books published in Hong Kong? I shall appreciate any advice from your experience.
With all best wishes,
Sincerely yours

3rd November, 1961
Dear Percy:
I am most grateful for your recent letter and for the catalogues which Lady David so kindly sent to me. Please convey to her my hearty thanks.
I wish it were possible for me to complete my Bibliography on Chinese Art and Archaeology in the time for inclusion in your monumental work. But as I am doing this work in my spare hours, I cannot complete it until the spring of 1963. Under these circumstances, may I say that my proposal to compile a bibliography on Ming ceramics is a practical one, and that it would be rather appropriate for your purpose. So, I shall get it started next month and have it ready before February 1, 1962.
The American Council of Learned Societies（345 East 46th Street, New York 17, N. Y.）has limited funds which its Committee on Grants can use in support of scholarly research（Each grant not exceeding $3,000）. Last November I applied for such a grant, but my request was turned down. Now, I am going to try again, but I have to be supported by strong recommendations from art historians and leading scholars. Since your recommendation would carry considerable weight, may I ask you to be good enough to write such a letter on my behalf? In this letter you might mention the urgent need for such a bibliography felt by all art historians as well as my competence in undertaking such a task. This letter should be mailed directly to the American Council of Learned Societies on the form herewith enclosed.
The letter of recommendation should reach the Council in November, while the grant will be announced in February or March. If I could get it, I could have clerical assistance and could travel to centers to gain access to necessary material, and the work will be greatly expedited.
Thanking you once again for your support and with warm regards to Lady David,
Sincerely yours,
Tung-li

9th November 1961
Dear Dr. Yuan:-
Thank you for your letter of November 3, 1961. We are, of course, all very sorry that you should have to postpone your visit. I find I am spending a useful and enjoyable time here and I am very much looking forward to going to Washington. But maybe this will have to wait until the end of this session（end of May）.
I am delighted to hear that the travel grants the UCC awarded you has been useful. I have given some thought to the other question you raised in your letter. I don't think that UCC would be an institution that could acquire and distribute copies of your bibliography, but the China Society might be interested in it. I suggest that you write about this to Professor Hansford who is both on the Council of the UCC and the China Society. You will have seen from the last report of the UCC that the publication committee worked out detailed rules for application for a subsidy and I have no doubt in my mind that a publication like yours would be eminently eligible for a subsidy. But since you have apparently the intention to pay for the printing, it is difficult to see how the subsidy should come in. I am sure that Professor Hansford would be willing to take up this matter with the chairman of the publication committee.（I do not know who he is, since I resigned my chairmanship before my departure to Toronto. It is likely however, that it is Professor Pulleyblank）.
If you write to Professor Hansford, he will either give advice himself or induce the chairman of the publication committee to do so, I can only repeat that my impression is that the UCC will be most glad to be of help in whatever way they can.
Hoping that you and Mrs. Yuan are well I remain, With very kind regards,
Yours sincerely

November 22, 1961
Dear Dr. Meng:
I am writing to ask for a favor.
The Guide to Doctoral Dissertations by Chinese Students in America, 1905-1960 will be published at the end of this month. I shall send a copy to you and to Dr. Cheng with my compliments.
Although it is a labor of love, I did not foresee the financial risks involved. When Minister Huang Chi-lu was here in August, Dr. P. W. Kuo told him that we would not be able to print it unless “the Ministry of Education” could subscribe a number of copies. He readily assured Dr. Kuo and myself that “the Ministry of Education” will subscribe three hundred copies（at a pre-publication price of $3.50）for distribution to individual scholars and institutions. With this assurance, 1,200 copies were printed. It was only last week that he wrote that “the Ministry” would subscribe only one hundred copies, but would subscribe three hundred copies if an abstract of each dissertation is inserted.
If we knew he would not keep his promise, we could have less number of copies printed. Since it has put us in an embarrassed situation, I wonder whether the China Institute could subscribe a number of copies for presentation to your Trustees and friends. Knowing your financial troubles, we shall leave the matter to your discretion. At any rate, please inform me how many copies are needed, so that they will be mailed to you direct from the printers.

守和先生尊鉴：
敬肃者，睽违道范，倏忽多日，比维福躬康强，潭第清泰，为祝为颂。兹接新嘉坡友人函告，谓马来亚大学（英人经办）圕现有副馆长一职出缺，劝璧备书申请，如将来事成，则不难将滞留大陆之家属设法迁移至新，如此多年离散之家庭，庶可藉此重聚耳。璧觉其言有理，又因马大圕似属意一国人接充，于是略经考虑，已于日昨将申请书填就寄新，以资审查。此事结果如何，尚难逆料，惟关于保证人一项，拟请先生担任一名（共需三人）。素承提携爱护，谅必蒙俯允也。倘不久马大来函咨询，总乞善语圆成为祷。缘璧漂泊海外业逾十四载，个人既不愿于此时回国，家人亦无法前来，长此僵持终非善策，且目前国际世局对于我国似有庞大之逆流不断冲击，其目的无非形成两个中国。倘不幸一旦成功，则美国亦非吾人安居之所，何况若干友人早已谓璧独自留美为无理，家人亦屡经催促矣。综此各项情形，璧觉实有把握时机从速离美之必要，于是对于马大缺额乃行毅然申请焉。想先生卓见或亦同情而谓然乎。不过此事甫经开始进行，一切毫无端倪，暂乞勿向他人道及而免贻日后笑柄。专此奉达，预献谢忱。敬颂崇安。不一。

嘱查四人名，现仅知Chen Chih-wen中文姓名为“陈志文”，其他尚待探询，如有所获当再修书奉陈不误。专此申谢，敬颂崇安。

先生覆信大维德爵士，建议其不要因自己的艺术和考古书目推迟论文集出版至1963年，并谈艺术和考古书目编纂亟需支持的现状。
November 27, 1961
Dear Percy:
Your letter of 9th November arrived while I was in Boston in connection with the Exhibition of Chinese Art Treasures there. Please excuse the unavoidable delay in answering your very charming letter.
If I understand from your letter correctly, your forthcoming publication will be in the nature of a symposium consisting of essays by noted scholars on Chinese art and letters. Since you will have all essays ready for printing by first of February next, it seems advisable that you go ahead with your original plans. At any rate, please do not defer its publication until 1963 simply for the sake of my bibliography on Chinese art and archaeology.
Whether my bibliography would be ready in 1963 would depend in a large measure on financial support from the American Council of Learned Societies. The Committee on Awards usually consists of men who know nothing about the history of art. I shall have a good chance of obtaining the grant, if my application is supported by such outstanding scholar like yourself.
If I am lucky to get the grant, I shall come to London in the summer and shall make my headquarters at your Foundation, if I may. My European travel would enable me to gain access to materials not available in this country.
In view of the size of the bibliography, it will be published as monograph under the auspices of your Foundation. I shall reserve the copyright for myself. I trust this arrangement will meet your approval.
Both Dr. Hu Shih and Dr. Chu Chia-Hua are not enjoying good health and I would suggest that you write to each of them, but I doubt if they could contribute an essay unless their health is fully restored.（Chu suffers from high-blood pressure, while Hu had a severe heart attack）I give their addresses below:
Dr. Hu Shih, President
“Academia Sinica”
Nan Kang, Taiwan
Dr. Chu Chia-Hua
c/o “Academia Sinica”
Nan Kang, Taiwan
Dr. Li Chi who could write on any subject in the field of Chinese art also had an attack of diabetes, so it is too tragic that he could not do much research at the present time,
Yours sincerely,

守和先生有道：
拜读复示（廿三），藉悉各节。关于龙代巴大中院选购大陆、台湾与香港出版之重要汉文典籍，一向均系在香港或日本函托书商办理，缘以此间唯一销售大陆出版品之Lib. du Globe, 21 Rue des Carmes, Paris 5e事实尚不如伦敦之Collet's Chinese BookShop, 40 Great Russell St. London, W. C. 1，如请代购任何汉籍，既费时日，尤少成果！旅巴中国同学，照例各自操作，少有往还，台北虽已派有专人在此连络，然其景象，仍难乐观。“同学会”至今根本无人筹组，“同学录”事实一直犹付阙如。就龙所知，孙参事处可能有一寄送“文教通讯”之名单，而该名单是否全系现在旅法之“学人”或“同学”，则龙仍觉难于忆测也。好在先生所问之三位同学，其中两位已经龙向中院常见之友好探明，即Ma Min-yuan为“马民元”、Shih Wei-shu为“时为述”，至于彼等之住址以及Chen Che-pen之汉名，且容以后查得，再予报命。承允赐寄大著，委实感谢不尽。将来拜读之后，定当试在此间学界，为文介绍。至于在此商恰销售大著之代理书店，当以A. Maisonneuve, 11 St.Sulpice, Paris 6e较有希望。唯以该店代销一书，每本往往高索折扣（如原书一本在此售价一千法郎，实际由彼归还书主犹不足其售价之40%，换言之，该店代售某书一本，至少其售价之60%，常为该店之进益与净利也）。先生如仍愿意请其作为代理，则盼来示告知，俾便由龙在此进行商洽。如说先生不必定在巴黎觅定代售书店，愚意先生似可径函莱登之Brill当局，商谈此事为宜，盖以该店本身即有英文书籍出版，而且亦如纽约之Paragon、伦敦之Kegan、牛津之Blackwell、剑桥之Heffer，并为经售汉学著述之中心也。兹有恳者：龙现在欲在美觅一公私基金资助纂制（主用英文，附印汉字）：（一）A Glossary of the Technical Terms of Chinese Book（主要对象为西方中文图书馆之工作人员及一般从事汉学教学者）；（二）Bibliography of the Study of Tun-huang Art（主要对象为中外从事研究敦煌艺术者）；（三）Anthology of T'ang Poems on Wang Chao-chün（旨在作为西方一般读者与中国文学专家之参考）。如说目前或将来有此机缘，还祈先生惠予荐介，鼎力玉成，实为感祷。肃此，敬颂潭安！

December 1, 1961
Prof. S. Howard Hansford
David Foundation of Chinese Art
53 Gordon Square
London, W. C. 1
Dear Professor Hansford:
Professor Simon recently suggested that I should ask your advice about the publication of A GUIDE TO DOCTORAL DISSERTATIONS BY CHINESE STUDENTS IN GREAT BRITAIN, 1916-1961, which I am compiling at present. He thought that if the Council approves, it could be published under the auspices of the China Society as one of its occasional papers.
The Guide will consist of 350 dissertations and will take about forty pages when printed. I shall be responsible for the printing cost, and it does not involve any expenditure to the China Society. If it could be published as an occasional paper, I shall use the same format and same color of the cover.
I shall appreciate it very much if you could advise how many copies would likely be needed for distribution in England at 15/-per copy. Do you send out advance notice to members, or leave it to a book dealer? Any advice from you will be much appreciated.
Needless to say, I am looking forward to the early publication of the second edition of your Glossary of Chinese Art and Archaeology.
With kindest regards,
Yours sincerely,
T. L. Yuan
P. S. I enclose my preface to this publication.

Dear Dr. Yuan:
Thank you very much for your letter of Nov. 3 and for your kindness to inform me about Prof. Li Tsung-tung's personal collection of Chinese books. I have written to Prof. Lao Kan and asked him to get a list for us. We are not giving up hope of Prof. Lao's coming.
Dr. Ting's address is 401 De la Fuente Street, Monterey Park, Calif.
I also have forwarded your letter to him, as soon as I received it from you.
The Chinese faculty and staff at UCLA are not very active now. As soon as I received your letter, I called Prof. Lin Tung-hua who is unofficially in charge of the group. He asked me to get in touch with Prof. S. T. Hu of the Mathematics Dept. and I did. Prof. Hu promised to give me the list of names in a week or so and several times he said he forgot about it because he has been very busy. I was waiting for the list, that is why I did not answer your letter earlier. I just called him again today and he said he will give it to me next week. I will forward it to you immediately when I receive it.
We have a copy of your bibliography: the China in Western Literature and our Main Library has a copy also. I suggested to Dr. Rudolph to order one for his Dept. I also recommended our Library to buy 2 copies of your Russian Works on China in American Libraries.
I hope everything is fine with you and your family. Season's greetings,
Yours sincerely,
Man-Hing Mok

《新疆研究丛刊》应甚有用。草目十种之外，似尚可加，如《金轺筹笔》等，联喆当另有建议。依弟愚见，不妨寻出若干1850前出版亚洲、俄属亚洲及中国地图，以西洋人所绘制者为主，予以复制，以见当日俄国、中国界线，以与1870以后之地图相较。所谓事实胜于雄辩也。若用俄国出版古地图尤佳。其实即此即可作一篇文也。我案头即有伦敦出版John C. Cary 1806绘印之中国Tartary图一帧，即可作参考（L. C.舆图部可参考）。专覆，敬颂撰安。

Sidney H. Hansford覆函先生，告知China Society不便作为《中国留英同学博士论文目录》的出版方。
12th December, 1961
Dear Dr. Yuan:
I was glad to receive your letter, and I have been considering your suggestions. I think it unlikely that the China Society would be a suitable publisher for your Guide to Doctoral Dissertations by Chinese Students in Great Britain, 1916-1961. In the first place, the Society only accepts for publications writings which the Council considers are primarily of interest to its members, most of whom are British. Each member is entitled to a free copy of all the Society's publications. Other copies are sold to the public, but the highest price charged for an Occasional Paper is 6/-. The Society has no sales organization and most of its publications are sold through its agents, Luzac & Co., 46 Great Russell St., London, W. C. 1.
Luzacs'would probably be a suitable publisher for your Guide. In the case of China Society publications which Luzacs'sell, they receive a commission of 50%of the published price, from which they have to give a commission to retail booksellers. To advertise your guide, I should suggest that you prepare, when the book is printed, a short prospectus, which Luzacs'would circulate with their quarterly book-list. You might write to Luzacs'and ask for their suggestions.
Please let me know if I can be of further help.
Yours sincerely,
S. Howard Hansford

I would therefore appreciate your help if you could solicit the assistance of your experts to send me a list of Czech literature on these two subjects.
Your help in sending me the literature on Marco Polo is especially appreciated. When the ms. is published, I shall certainly send you a copy. If you need any American book, please let me know. I shall be glad to send it to you.

Dear Dr. Yuan:
Thanks for your letter dated 11th Dec. enclosing a draft Preface for your coming work. I have been extremely busy lately. That is why I have been rather late in my reply. I was also a little confused when I received your letter, because just two days before I met at the China Institute a man, named Albert Lu, who spoke to me more or less about the same or rather same sort of thing. Now, I have found out that what he wants is my biographic notes, and so the matter is clear.
As you do me the honor of asking me to write the Foreword of your work, I shall be glad to do so. But I have some urgent work to do at present and, therefore, hope that you won't mind if I send you my draft by the end of January.
We had the pleasure of seeing your daughter in London at our house last year. We hope she is quite well.
With best wishes for a Happy New Year.
Yours sincerely,
F. T. Cheng

先生致信钱存训，请其协助台北故宫在美巡展人员觅一合适住所。
公垂吾兄大鉴：
弟近到波士顿参观故宫文物展览，该项文物将于一月二十日运往芝城，将来到芝城后，尚希予以协助。弟已告杨云竹“公使”，渠与令兄在“外部”同事多年，想必来请教。又工作人员李霖灿、那志良、庄尚严三人将随古物乘大汽车或火车来芝城，愿在Art Institute左近觅一小旅馆或能做饭之apt.，不识能代觅否？该处在市中心恐不易也。《论文目录》已转寄贵馆，日内即可寄出（共二十一部），一切偏劳，谢谢！顺候教祺。

〔钱孝文藏札〕
《国宝赴美展览日记》，页277。
按：1961年12月1日至1962年1月1日，“中国古艺术品展览会”在波士顿美术馆巡展，2月16日至4月1日，在芝加哥美术馆（The Art Institute of Chicago）巡展。27日，李霖灿、那志良等人赴芝加哥大学图书馆拜访钱存训，后者驾车陪他们寻找合适的住处，最后在黑石公寓觅得一间。
庄尚严致函先生，述病况并谈其拟辞去台北故宫博物院职务。
守和先生道席：
严于上月廿一到纽约，廿二日即来Boston。长途飞行，来此之后应酬频繁，更以展览诸事忙乱，遂致病倒入院。在院之时欣闻先生因事来波，因不能外出，缘悭一面，怅惘何如。严来美之先曾作种种计划，华盛顿之行原在计拟之中，此番病后是否能于波士顿城展览完毕之前赶往，此刻仍不敢定也。小儿庄申庆生于北平，长于抗战逃亡之中，大学卒业曾在南港“中央研究院”史语所从事研究工作，于今秋来美，刻在Princeton研究院专攻东方美术与考古，后生晚辈谨报告先生知之。严明夏归国，拟辞去故宫主任名义，能得退休更好，否则今后亦只能从事研究工作。行年六五，体力日衰，此种打算，先生以为何如？玄老在台甚好，惟血压仍高耳。寂居旅舍，拉杂书此。敬候年安，并请夫人懿安！
后学庄严顿首
一九六一、十二、卅一
故宫近刊《汝窑》一本，刻印卅六幅，由严主持，由吴玉璋写作，已出书（香港开发公司印行）。闻值美金卅五元。
又《王羲之墨迹》一册，将现存右军法帖均皆收入，编写考证诸文，由严一人包办，由日本大塚承印，闻不久亦可出书。近来工作如何而已。严又及。
〔University of Chicago Library, Yuan T'ung-li Papers, Box 8〕

《北京图书馆月刊》第1卷第2号，1928年6月，页126。
按：先生编辑留美、留英、留欧各国博士论文目录之设想，可追溯到北京图书馆时期，1928年夏，该馆曾致函留学各国学子征求博士论文。
本书由蒋梦麟题中文书名，郭秉文撰英文序言，“中美文化协会”（“Sino-American Cultural Society”, Inc.）赞助发行。

先生联系石田幹之助（Mikinosuke Ishida）教授，请其协助搜集有关新疆的外文史料，后者为先生介绍其学生渡边宏（Hiroshi Watanabe）。〔《新疆研究文献目录：1886-1962》（日文本）序〕
该书译名参照本年12月20日先生与罗家伦信中的表述，徐家璧与先生信函中则称作“俄文中国论著”。
先生所编Russian Works on China, 1918-1960 in American libraries（《苏联研究中国文献目录》
）以单行本刊行，出版方为耶鲁大学。

先生曾赴耶鲁大学查阅文献资料，时任该校图书馆中文编目工作的胡应元对先生印象非常深刻，且就实际问题多多请益，先生不厌其详、一一解答，并嘱今后如有问题可以随时来函讨论。〔《思忆录》，中文部分页25〕
按：此后，胡应元曾多次写信求教先生，其接受圣路易斯华盛顿大学图书馆东方部负责人之聘亦是听取先生的意见。
