Paris, le 15 février 1889
31 rue Dumont Durville

Dear Sir
I hear that your friend Mr. Stanford is going to found a University on a large scale at San Francisco. One of my colleagues of the French Institute, Mr. Paul Viollet, has asked me to inform you, that, should it [suit?] Mr. Stanford's views, he would be inclined to accept in the New University a professorship of History of Law. Mr. Viollet is a very learned and distinguished man, and was elected Member of the Institute a short time ago.
Should you wish to communicate with him his [direction?] is, rue Soufflot, 2 [bis?].
I had some hesitation in troubling you about a matter of this kind, but Miss King, my [sister?] in law, encouraged me to write to you.
Believe me
Very truly yours
W.W. [Wadington?]
French Ambassador in London
