            Leipzig 29 March 1839. My dear Sir
Mr. Hiller to whom I communicated the Contents of your last letter has requested me to send the parts of his two Overtures that they might be performed at the Philharmonic Society. I send those parts which belong to the Concert here and beg you will send them back as soon as you do not want them any more directed to the „Direction der Abonnement-Concerte, Leipzig. “ We shall want them next September, not before that time. You will find all the parts of the 2 Ouvertures, and the score of that in D; I could not send the Score of the other, which I had not here.
I hope to be able to send you a very extraordinary & excellent Symphony of F. Schubert, the famous composer, which we performed here at our last Concert with great applause. I have written to Vienna to get the permission of sending the work to the Society, & shall send it immediately if allowed to do so.
Believe me always yours very trulyFelix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
P. S. May I ask you to send the enclosed parcel to J. Alfr. Novello?
69 Dean Street, Soho.
