Als dated from Charlottesville, thanking SPT for the copy of the Catalogue to his collection, commenting on why various items are marked 'not in the Wheeler Collection' and why Wheeler was unable to continue to extend his collection and why it is not looked on favourably now. Suggesting that if SPT would ever like to sell his collection there would be a ready market in the West, particularly to Stanford University or to University of California, as these were young but flourishing institutions with generous patrons who would be able to purchase a library. Weaver would be willing to start negotiations on SPT's behalf if he should wish to.
