Letter to William Osler, August 19, 1918
Item
Letter to William Osler from Leonard L. Mackall, 420, Riverside Drive, New York, USA. Mentions a letter of Boggs. He has written to him December 26th after he heard of Revere's death, but Osler may not have received the letter. He sent him a copy of the catalogue of the library of van Murr, but does not remember when he sent it from Savannah. Details about of the erasure on the copy of it at the Surgeon General's Library. Hopes he did not forget to thank Osler for the pamphlet on the book-worm. Answers his bibliographical questions. Asks him if he had bought anything at the Huth Sale. He has bought Rive's Chasse aux Bibliographes. Details about the other book he bought. Informs him that he gave up his position as librarian of the DeRenne Library in Savannah, and is now waiting to do war work for the National Red Cross. Thinks he will go to France early in October. Civilities.
