听到卞公孝萱先生的西行消息感到非常突然,因为年初还先后收到他两次来信,数月前我们还通过电话,他的声音还是相当洪亮,不料竟于9月5日遽归道山。不仅朋友们感到突然,就是他的子女、弟子也同样感到突然,因为他的西行确实太匆忙了。他这一走,不仅是学术界一大损失,而且对文献会来说更是一大损失,我相信全体文献会会员将会永远怀念这位对文献会作出很大贡献的学术界长者——我们的老会员。 I heard Mr. Bian Gongxuan Xuan’s message was very sudden, because the beginning of the year has also received two letters from him, a few months ago we also over the phone, his voice was still quite loud, but unexpectedly actually on September 5 Zigui Road . Not only did his friends suddenly feel that he was his children, his disciples also felt suddenly, because his westbound trip was indeed too rushed. His departure is not only a big loss for academia, but also a great loss to the literature club. I believe all members of the literature association will forever miss the academic elder who made a great contribution to the literature - - our old member.
