TIL ÍSLENDINGA 35 revisit their native country; many more will keep up an active correspondence with old friends at home; and thus new American ideas will reach Iceland. God grant that none of those ideas which do little credit to my countrymen may be introduced, but only those which in the end may prove to be a blessing. In Edinburgh I spent several pleasant hours in the family of Mr. Douglas, all the members ofwhich spoke most pleasantly ofyou. Mr. Douglas was very kind to me, because his most intimate American friend is also a warm friend of mine. I have not yet seen Mr. Quade, but shall doubtless encounter him at some of the diplomatic dinner parties which I occasionally attend, when I shall not forget your message. Enclosed you will find a couple of literary notes, one or both of which may seem to you of suíficient interest to be used for the columns of ísafold. I find everywhere in Germany a growing taste for the study of the old Icelandic literature. It is evident that when those Nestors of Icelandic study in Germany, Maurer and Möbius and Bergmann pass away, there will be plenty of younger men, like Gering and Brenner and Edzardi, to take their places.1 Please convey my kindest regards and heartiest good wishes for the New Year to Mrs. Thomsen, and believe me to be always faithfully yours, Willard Fiske. Kæri dr. Thomsen. Beztu þakkir fyrir vinsamlegt bréf, og þá ekki síður fyrir að muna eftir mér og þá vinsemd, sem í því felst. Ég vona eins og þér, að íslandi hlotnist eitthvað gott frá Ameríku, þótt ekki verði nema vegna útflutningsins þangað. Því að margir útflytjendanna munu, þegar tímar líða, sjálfir heimsækja ættland sitt, og enn fleiri munu skrifast rækilega á við gamla vini heima, og þannig berast nýjar amerískar hugmyndir til íslands. Guð gefi, að engin þau lífsviðhorf, sem eru landsmönnum mínum til lítils sóma, verði þar kynnt, heldur einungis þau, sem að lokum munu verða til blessunar. 1 Dr. Konrad Maurer háskólakennari í Múnchen Dr. Theodor Möbius háskólakennari í Kiel Dr. Friedrich Wilhelm Bergmann háskólakennari í Strasbourg Dr. Hugo Gering háskólakennari í Halle Dr. Oskar Brenner háskólakennari í Múnchen Dr. Anton Edzardi háskólakennari í Leipzig
