Australia, which you read in
the proofs of my book, will be
published soon, I hope, in the
Fortnightly, and it will be
followed by another on the
beginnings of totemism in
Australia, embodying suggestions
which I mentioned to you in
our first interview in London.
They contain my latest and,
perhaps, final view of the
origin of totemism. I think
the paper will interest you, and
I shall be glad of your
criticisms.

What are you working at
now? I am lecturing this
term on the position of Kings in
early society, and I am
going on with the new edition
of my book.

With our united kind
regards to you and Miss
Howitt

I am
Yours very truly
J. G. Frazer
