Dear Dr. Edmondsons 
I have hopes of getting away shortly on a trip to the 
Society Islands, financed by a friend of the Museum. Kith 
me will be Dr. Karald A. Rahder, Mr. Thomas E. Bowman, and 
Mr. Charles E. Cutress. Vie shall be in Honolulu one day the 
29tb c.f March, and during that time hope to see a number of 
our friends and visit briefly the University and especially 
the Museum. I hop® to see you too. Late in the afternoon 
we have to call upon a Mr. Ernest May, a friend of this 
Institution, who has invited the little expedition party to 
dinner. Cutress , as you may know, is up for his final exami 
nations for his doctorate. Perhaps you are on his board of 
examiners. I have not asked him that question. 
If you are not at the Museum, I shall give you a ring 
at home when we arrive. 
My best to you folks and here’s to seeing you real 
soon. 
Sincerely, 
Waldo L. Schmitt
