In Pr. Fisher's absence , your letter of April 26 addressed to 
him* has been given to me for my infonaation* I am very glad indeed 
to have the notes on Ptinking Lake and the conditions there* and es- 
pecially the information regarding the Chama Hod and Oun Club. I 
expect to. leave Tfashington on the evening of iday lb* but have first 
to go into bouthem Texas* According to tlie itinerary 1 have arranged 
I should reach Chama* New Uexico* at noon on ilay 21 and hope to be able 
to oom;>lete arrangetaents so as to go to Stinking ^aake on the following 
day. It is possible* of coarse* that 1 shall be delayed for one day 
somewhere along the route* so that I may not reach Chama until the 22d* 
If your plans permit* 1 shall be more than pleased to see you at the 
lake and to talk with you regarding the work ee are to carry on there. 
From information that has been available 1 believe by arriving there be- 
fore Uay 25 I shall be in plenty of time to catch all of the breeding 
birds and* in addition* pezhape* to make notes on some of the later 
migrants. 
With best regards* 1 am 
Very truly yours*
