Dear Raine: —Received Bird-Nesting in North 

 West Canada. The excellen e of the work 

 atones lor the delay. The eggs figured in gen- 

 eral faithfulne-ss of coloring and design exceed 

 my expectation. The letter-press and plates 

 of birds and nests "in situ" more than bear 

 out the announcement made in the prospectus.

 that I have derived from it. Send me another

 another book as good as this, and as reasonable 

 in price, i would thank you to let me know. I 

 wish you many kind wishes on your expedition 

 next spring to the North.
