Two small pamphlets, numbered together --ie. not (a) and (b), but considered one volume. On the covers of both, there is a personal letter to Russell from Cantor: "To the Right Hon. Bertrand Russell the Editor Georg Cantor. Halle Wittenberg Sept. 22 1911. (Your find letter this morning received; as to Old Grand Kant your battle word or catchword (to my satisfaction) appears to be: a Cant -- Or Cantor" Quite Well! Farewell, G. C. With my dear son Eric, as circumstances allow, it goes quite well. His lungs are sound and healthy. A week passed on he goes with his young wife to Meran. His spitting of blood has been caused by overwork, in vaccinating. He has no fever! For next week I have for Naturforverschersammlung und Mathematiker vereining promised a little speech Ueberdie Frage der Moeglischkeit einer Erweisserung aus Feldes. Shakespeareologic is quite annihilated as you and the whole wide world will see few days passed on. 22 Sept. 1911." Translation of the author's Confession of faith.
