Letter to Arnold Carl Klebs from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Concerns the opportunity to buy Pagel's Library. Would like to induce Marburg to buy the books for the Johns Hopkins University. He had written to Sudhoff asking him to send him the catalogue, and if there was any hurry, he would cable Marburg or Welch to see Sudhoff. Comments about a Spanish item on Syphilis (Diaz de Isla, "el Male Serpentino," Sevilla, 1542. Kind comments on Sudhoff with whom he wishes to spend a week and visit the Institute. Mentions that he got a fine 1478 Celsus of which he has a copy that he will hand over to one of the libraries.
