Letter from Christopher Gimson to RAS Secretary, replying that he will ask the author of the old Manipuri monograph whether he would send the manuscript. He further writes that the Darbar [of the state of Manipur] had a fund for historical and archaeological research which may fund the publication, but otherwise he is willing to make a personal contribution towards the publication. Year unspecified but likely dated to 1950.
