The scholar Ignaz Goldzeiher quotes a hadith in his work *"Muslim Studies"* vol. 1 on pg. 205.
Someone came into Malik’s auditorium and shows him a manuscript from the folds of his clothes “This is your Muwatta, O Abu Abd Allah, which I have copied. Please grant me your permission (ijaza) to hand it down.” This permission is granted, and when handing down the text you may use the formula: Malik has told me, Malik has reported to me.”[Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi, fol. 84b, ed. Hyderabad, 309]
It is found in the work of Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi, perhaps in his *al-Kifaya fi ma'rifat usul 'ilm al-riwaya*
