Letter from Professor JA Engelbrecht to Dr KMF Scott, 26 December 1951. Engelbrecht thanks Scott for her letter of 11 December and informs her that he is willing to write the introduction to the Bushman Dictionary. He is only available from February 1952 as he is away from work having an operation. If Scott does not want to approach someone else, he asks to be sent Dorothea Bleek's papers, notes and proofs for the dictionary in the mean time.
