註釋

In January of 1930, Harvard University (cooperatively via Harvard's Fogg Art Museum and the Harvard Yenching Institute) agreed to financially back Stein as an independent contractor for his explorations into Chinese Turkestan (Central Asia). They also agreed to allow the cooperation of the British Museum. Series II of this collection reflects Harvard's involvement with Stein and also includes Stein's correspondence with British, Chinese, and American officials, related to Stein's political situation in China. There is correspondence between Keller and other Bostonians connected to Harvard, especially including Paul J. (Paul Joseph) Sachs. There are copies of official reports, telegrams, payroll records, and memorandum that detail the events that led to Stein abandoning his expedition in Chinese Turkestan (Central Asia). Included are financial records related to costs of the expedition and information regarding Harvard funding, as well as clippings and reprints by and about Stein.
