Concluding Remarks
c12.1
[96] DR. W. CARTELLIERI, whose name appears at the bottom of the Plates, is responsible for the drawing and tracing of the letters for which no cuttings from facsimiles were available, as well as for the arrangement and the *retouche* of the cuttings, except in the case of plates VII—IX, which were finished by a young lithographer, MR. BÖHM. I have also to acknowledge DR. CARTELLIERI'S assistance in the selection of the signs, which in a few cases he has made independently, and in others has been influenced by a revision of my proposals; and I have to thank him for various ingenious remarks on the Indian alphabets, as well as for a collection of the variants in the Aśoka edicts.
c12.2
If I have been able to illustrate most of the Indian alphabets by cuttings from facsimiles, instead of by hand-drawn signs, I owe this chiefly to my friend DR. J. BURGESS, who during many years has kindly furnished me with separate copies of his excellent reproductions of Indian inscriptions. Some other donors of facsimiles or photographs, Dr. E. HULTZSCH, PROFESSOR E. LEUMANN, and DR. S. VON OLDENBURG, have already been mentioned in the notes.
