With reference to an entry in Quaritch's Catalogue no. 184 casting reflections on Eisenlohr (1877). Quotation: "The same day I received the catalogue from Mr. Quaritch, I wrote to him inquiring who was responsible for the remarks, and refuting the imputation by pointing to p. 2, line 7, of my Mathematisches Handbuch (Leipzig, Hinrichs, 1877), where I explained that a copy of the papyrus was given to me in the spring of 1872 by Dr. Samuel Birch, the keeper of the Egyptian antiquities in the British Museum: further, that my work was not issued before I got permission of the same Dr. Birch. For the attack on my scientific fame, no man can pretend that my translation, after ﬁve years' hard work, was hastily prepared, and that numerous errors render it of little use." At the place mentioned in his Handbuch there is no reference to his having obtained "permission of the same Dr. Birch," but only what is quoted in the footnote under Ahmes (1898), above.
