'Geehrter Herr, Der Umfang Ihres Briefes liess mich hoffen, dass ich darin endlich Documente finden dürfte, worin ich getäuscht wurde. Ich zweifele keineswegs an d. Tüchtigkeit Ihres Bruders, aber dieses Wechselfieber vom Wollen u. Nichtwollen, diese Drohungen ... sind nicht in m. Geschmacke.
... Nachdem die ersten 10,000 fr. bis jetzt nur die Vorbereitung zu Reisethaten, aber auch kein einziges für uns tastbares Resultat herbeigeführt, ist es mir unmöglich einen Schritt zu thun, u. wenn ein solcher gethan werden soll, so muss ich m. Anfrage auf Vorhandenem basiren können. Genehmigen Sie die Versicherung m. Ergebenheit J. Derenbourg.
Short description:
Joseph Derenbourg (1811-1895), member of the 'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres', expresses his disappointment at not yet having received any epigraphic material from Eduard Glaser (1855-1908).
Pointing out that the funds made available, amounting to 10,000 Fr., have so far only been used for the preparations of the first trip to Yemen, he reiterates that he is not in a position to request a further advance from the donors, as 'he must be able to base his request on tangible results'....
