PRO 30/33 12 and PRO 30/33 13. To reproduce every letter with annotations would be a major labour and would probably not be worthwhile. On the other hand, a mere list can be instructive in its own way, and reference to the contents of letters may also assist scholars in evaluating their value in various projects. The approach is similar to the one adopted with the catalogue of the Takeda family letters at the Yokohama Archives of History, which includes a number written by Satow to his Japanese family.1 1 See Nakatake Kanami, ‘Takedake Kyu-zo- A-nesuto Sato- Kankei Shiryo- Mokuroku’ (1), (2), (3) in Yokohama Kaiko- Shiryo-kan Kiyo- No. 21, 22, 24. (Heisei 15, 16 and 18: 2003, 2004, 2006). 中武 香奈実、「武田家旧蔵アーネスト・サトウ関係 資料目録」in 横浜開港資料館紀要 No. 21, 22, 24. (平 成15、16、18) i The total number of letters is 1,397, with the years as follows: 1906 – 8 letters 1907 – 31 1908 – 72 1909 – 45 1910 – 84 1911 – 13 1912 – 24 1913 – 64 1914 – 109 1915 – 117 1916 – 146 1917 – 88 1918 – 123 1919 – 111 1920 – 125 1921 – 104 1922 – 42 1923 – 23 1924 – 12 1925 – 26 1926 – 1 ii 1927 – 26 Year unknown – 3 The great majority are letters which have been received by Satow, though sometimes full copies of letters which he sent are included. On other occasions he merely writes an outline of his answer on the letter with the date answered, or just the latter. Sometimes he also writes the date on which the letter was received. The most active letter writers in terms of numbers of letters written are: Usually No. writes of Work: from: letters: Arthur E. Eastes China 16 Consular W. M. Hewlett China 29 Consular Frank L.

Alice Mayes, the only female correspondent above, was a London-based researcher who did paid work at the Public Record Office in Chancery Lane for Satow and sent the results to him in Devon. iv Ian Ruxton February 2018 v CONTENTS Archive ref.
