Description
Dated 12 December. Thanks for kindness shown to Loesch and Schlinger while in London; Loesch wishes to leave the Canarese work because of dissensions amongst the Basel workers; hoped that restoration of his health would change his mind, but he still wants to work elsewhere in India and has asked to be accepted by CMS; he is able and good at learning languages having studied Canarese, Hindustani and Tamil.
