Donlon, J.
In accordance with stipulation of counsel that the merchandise consists of one antique violin and violoncello made "prior to the year 1801" and that if the letter from the importer, which is now attached to the entry, had been before the collector prior to the liquidation of the entry or the expiration of the collector's review period under section 515, the merchandise would have been liquidated free of duty under paragraph 1811, the claim of the plaintiff was sustained.
