You will recall our hunt for the new species of pal® on 
Cocos, The two group pictures that Thompson snapped of you whan you 
were there together on the baach have made rather nice photographs, 
even though taken from those tiny Kodachroses. Won’t you .five a 
copy each to Jakssnan and the officer with the palm leaf. Was that 
Bunas? I know him very well, hut cannot with certainty put a name 
on his picture. Jakmnsn gets on© and you and Boaas [.? ] two each, 
I have nothing hut the aost pleasant recollections of the 
cruise. I would certainly like to he able to look forward to another 
with the President and your outfit. 
Sincerely,
