CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE NATURAL HISTORY OF ALASKA. 9 



A. Mayo, and J. Harper, of the upper Yukon District, I am deeply indebted for many specimens of 

 birds which I would not otherwise have obtained. 



In the Unalashkan District I can but remember with pleasure the facilities afforded me by 

 the Western Fur and Trading Company through their agents, Mr. John Hague, and especially to 

 Mr. Robert King, agent of the district. 



To the gentlemen composing the Alaska Commercial Company, in San Francisco, I take 

 pleasure in acknowledging the many favors extended me with extreme courtesy at Saint Michael's 

 and during the first year of my stay at Unalashka. 

 I am, sir, very respectfully, yours, 



LUCIEN M. TURNER. 

 The Chief Signal Officer U. S. Army,
