Transcribe Finsch, Otto S. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1886-05-02)

May 2, 1886 Berlin N. May, 1886. July 4 Marthgrafen Str, No. 15. II My Dear Prof. Ward, Your favour of March 25th reached me in due time, but I could not send you the boxes before I had been in Bremen myself. By this I have the pleasure to announce you that </u all has been don according to your order > of 28th of December. So I need not to request the [mi] [mter] and hope that the boxes will reach you unmolested and safe in one time. I did write to Moller in the short way you [sohematired] from Bremen, and the boxes will go accordingly.

  I am quite satisfied what you

write in regard to [inprueance] and also agree with your refural of the boxes, as I did not know that Castan stupidly had declared the full value.
