The author of the essays of the first collection is one Muhammad Ali Damolla. The author of the essays of the second collection is one Abul Vahid akhon. The essays were evidently intented for Raquette's Eastern Turki Grammar, P. 3 which contains an Eastern Turki-English Vocabulary and for his English-Turki Dictionary (Lund 1927). Excerpts from these essays have no doubt been included in the above mentioned two works, but the main part of the word material contained in them has never been published. Annexed is a plan in Swedish in Raquette's hand which indicates that his intention was to have Abul Vahid akhon, or some other Mulla, write further essays of the same kind as those registered in the ms. In this plan the contents of the missing numbers AV 37-38 and AV 40-51 are indicated. The total collection consists of 169 leaves of which 117 in Collection I and 52 in Collection II;
