Structure, format and condition as C-5-4-13a. Generated in the office of the South Canara District, like C-5-4.13c overwhelmingly letters from Basel. It is not clear what the difference is between 13c and 13d, unless indeed 13c is a file of the…

Format, construction and condition as C-5-4.7 Generated in the General Treasurer’s office. The date "1914" is misleading - some letters from 1914 are simply laid into the rear end-papers. The last letter bound in is dated Oct. 1912. This is the…
Format, construction, condition as C-5-4.7 File generated in the office of the Basel Mission’s General Treasurer. Compared with C-5-4.10 it contains (virtually no) correspondence down the Mission’s main hierarchy. Instead there is a lot of technical…
