George C. Shattuck to George C. Shattuck, Jr., at 

 Bowdoin College 

 My Son, — 



Yours of the 21st inst. has just arrived. I am 

 glad you have called on the Rev'd President and 

 thank him for the courtesy he extended toward you. 

 Tender him my respects when you may next see 

 him. 



Since my last I have received the Birds of Amer- 

 ica by J. J. Audubon (vol. ist) and a splendid work 

 it is too., ?20O for the vol. & ?20 for half binding in 

 Russia backs & corners. His Turkies, Eagles, Owls, 

 Hawks etc. etc. are magnificent ! superb 1 transcend- 

 ent! 



M. Audubon has imparted to me an invitation 

 for you to accompany him on the Labrador Coast 

 the coming summer — of course I thanked him. 

 He will be in Eastport the first of May. Your Lec- 

 tures will not have been finished at that time. Dr.
