786 THE GEORGE CATLIN INDIAN GALLERY. 



Hunting and other Scenes, was so much pleased with their spirit and execution, that 

 he desired Count Orloff to send me a gold snuff-box, to be presented to you as a mark 

 of his majesty's gratification derived from the efforts of your pencil. 



" I acquit myself of this agreeable commission by sending you herewith a Russian 

 box of gold and blue enamel, set in pearls, which will, I trust, prove to you a grati- 

 fying reminiscence of the Emperor's visit to England. 

 " I am, my dear sir, very faithfully, yours, 



"C. A. Murray." 

 "To Geo. Catlin, Esq." 



This most gratifying testimony of the Emperor's satisfaction with my work was un- 

 expected by me; and future pages will show that I received evidences equally flatter- 

 ing from their Majesties the King of the French and the King of the Belgians.—
