DEAR DR. WILEY : In response to your request in favor of 18th instant I have very 

 much pleasure in sending you by this mail three samples of adulterated foundation 

 comb, which I trust will reach you safely. I trust that the quantity of each will be 

 sufficient for your purposes. I would have sent more if I had had it. I think, how- 

 ever, there will be enough to take sp. gr. ether extract after treatment with H..2SO4 

 and fatty acids by saponification. 



R. E. Smith, who sold the adulterated comb, claims to have purchased his stock in 

 the United States. 



Yours, faithfully, 



FRANK T. SHUTT, 

 Chemist, Dominion Experimental Farm.
