Correspondence

A handwritten letter (copy or draft?) from Dorothea Bleek to Professor Clement M Doke dated 27 April 1943, from Newlands. Dorothea asks Professor Doke about !ku lateral clicks, as she is working on that section of her Bushman dictionary. She references Dr Vedder and her aunt Lucy Lloyd's writing - and in Lloyd's case, also pronouncing - these clicks.
