Letter from E. Denison Ross to C.A. Storey to inform him that at the trustees meeting held on 23 May, it was resolved that for the publication Hudud ud Alam, edited by Vladimir Minorsky, that apart from verbal corrections no further additions to the proofs be allowed and the work should be printed with an index of only the proper names. Denison Ross writes that on reporting this to Minorsky, he found that Minorsky had already created a more detailed index of his notes and commentary.
