Dear Ms. Simpson:
I am glad at last to be able to make good on my June 2003 offer of a donation
for the Library to acquire the 11-volume set of 7;he Diary of samUe/ Pepp,
(R. C. Latham and W. Matthews, eds., University of California Press, 1970).
If this donation does not quite cover the accession costs, please let me know; I would like to supply the additional funds. If there are monies left over, please
use them for other Pepys-related materials the Library does not yet own, or for
other acquisitions.
Please note, contrary to the original email, this is a personal not a corporate
donation. If you would, please return a confirmation letter (for the I&)
at your convenience.
With best reoards,
Clifford R Cannon
