  Dear

  — 
  I 
  send 
  you 
  herewith 
  a 
  list 
  of 
  mammals

  Most 
  of 
  the 
  specimens 
  are 
  from 
  New 
  York 
  localities 
  ; 
  but 
  

   a 
  few, 
  especially 
  of 
  those 
  animals 
  that 
  are 
  now 
  extinct 
  in 
  New 
  

   York, 
  are 
  from 
  localities 
  outside 
  of 
  our 
  State. 
  

  

  All 
  of 
  the 
  specimens 
  exhibited 
  were 
  loaned 
  under 
  proper 
  

   authority
