Description
Dated 1 October. It has taken a long time for the committee to deliberate over the question of shortening their training course; agreed while in London, from his personal concern and deep attachment to the connexion between the two societies, but Basel feel they cannot shorten the course; has written to Deggeler to come home; Basel will change their accounting methods at the end of the year and no longer need CMS help 'it would be rather importunate to request the continuance of such a relation'.
