The following errata are to be made in the article “On the Representation of Tones in Oriental Languages” appearing in the Journal for October, 1920:—p. 455, footnote, 1. 2, for “Anthropus” read “Anthropos”. p. 465, wherever the word “Quocangu” occurs, correct it to “Quocangu”.

p. 543. No. 286 is the well-known work of Murtaḍā lithographed in Ṭeherān, and in a more accessible edition, Cairo, 1325 A.H. (four volumes).

p. 549. No. 13. Insān al-'Uyūn is correct; it is a well-known biography of the prophet, and the remainder should read

Noe. 38–9. . No doubt the Constantinople print 1286 a.h. (in four volumes). No. 41. No doubt the work of Qazwīnī.

p. 550. Nos. 47–8. . Probably the Cairo edition of 1283 a.h.

p. 551. No. 71. . The history of Maḥmūd of Ghazna.

p. 554. No. 10. .

p. 555. No. 80. .

p. 556. No. 125. .

There are many other titles of books which by careful scrutiny could be identified, but the whole library appears to be very disappointing when compared with the libraries in Constantinople.

In several cases the vowels have been placed a trifle sideways from the consonants, but this should be no impediment to students.
