De László thanks Siklóssy for his efforts regarding the mishandled charity lottery painting [6316]. He disagrees with Gábor Ugron's claim that the committee has sole rights over the painting and asserts his original donation was to a different society. Has returned proofs for the Hungarian edition of "Painting a Portrait". Received notice from the Alispán regarding a portrait commission and anticipates painting three notable figures in Budapest. Supports "The Hungarian Quarterly", has sent a King Edward anecdote, and requests the marriage date of Crown Prince Rudolf for his memoirs.
