San Juan, Porto Rico 
Dear Mr. Wetmore: 
I am mailing to you a package containing some 45 prints 
of your Porto Rican negatives which seem to me very good to 
afford an excellent idea of the characteristics of the island 
landscape. One would know at a glinpse that you were in no 
bird paradise, as the general absence of heavy timber and 
sheltereQ chaparrals is naturally fatal to great numbers of 
birds. ’Will you kindly label the cards and return them for 
filing? 
Very truly yours,
