SI Bredin Exp. — Society Ids.

Smithsonian-Bredin Society Islands Expedition 
To facilitate bookkeeping for the Bredin contributions , I -would like to 
suggest that the several funds that he has given us to date be Incorporated 
into one entitled either the Bredin Expeditions Fund, which is shorter , or 
the Smithsonian-Bredin Expeditions Fund, if you prefer. This is in line with 
his suggestion that the balances , so far as necessary, be used for the upcoming 
expedition to the Society Islands. 
PS. I do believe the time is now ripe to honor Mr. Bredin as an ’’honorary 
fellow w 5 perhaps on occasion of the forthcoming Regents meeting.
