Show „ • Ih Sharia ¥adl el-HU £- l< K Maadi - Cairo, Egypt \ \ Jnly 16, l|?3 % dear Philips It was the treat of the season to spend a day with you in Alexandria though my wife was very disappointed to have missed seeing you with us at Maadi. 1 trust that you have had a pleasant Journey to the East and that you have by now safely returned to Princeton. I need hardly say -hat a privilege it acs to have been able to compare notes and, exchange news and views with you in person. Since your departure fros Egypt, however, events have moved a little with se. Confidentially speaking. I have written to the University authorities conveying wy decision to retire from its service at the end of 19?3* Slough there is a fair amount of pressure brought to bear upon me by several people to withdraw lay decision, I have no intention ~hat-ever to change ay mind. I believe that it is high time that I should put an end to this waste of time and en®zgy« She other item of interest, was the receipt of a cable fron Dean Paul A. Bodd of California*!©^ Ingeles enquiring about the tine of my availability for a Viaftting Professorship in his Acuity. This came about a month ago and I cabled back, but no particulars' have arrived by mail since then. Evidently Dr. Dodd is the person you mentioned in the course of our conversation who visited wiah yet in ".Tew 7ork about the ftear last Program. If you think that our discussions In Alexandria °^Jc^f subject provide you with an opportunity to re^open this natter with niis, and if you deea this action advisable and feasible, perhaps you coula pass the sua-total of our Alexandria deliberations' to Mm. Incidentally, though I should feel haepier if 1 could combine the occasion of vsy termination of services in Egypt with a new post in isaeriea for the sake of the children and my own literarv activities. my decision was nade irrespective ce° ;y circtaact*!-•*•_*>, ir the future. Knowing the facts of the position here as you do, I have no doubt that you will appreciate the motives underlyiaa: my decision. My wife Joins me in sending you and Mrs. mtti our very kindest remembrances and our most cordial greeting.?. Most sincerely, Az±z S. Atiya Professor Philip IC. HItti Princeton University % S. A. |
