Concepcion, Chile, November 19, 1927. 
My dear I^r. Schmitt: 
I am very glad to have your letter of October 21, 
1927, with which you v/ere good enough to send a pamphlet 
from the National Geographic Society. 
V/ith regard to photographs of Juan Fermandez, upon 
the receipt of your previous letter I sent you ten nega- 
tives, and a further search has brought forth five more 
v/hich might be of some use to you. Like almost all 
which I have already sent you, I doubt if these will be 
of tise to you, nevertheless I am pleased to have the op- 
portunity to be of service to you. 
While I made some thirty exposures most of them 
were uninteresting. I suppose you got a good one of the 
cave and the bronze plaque, and perhaps of the city. If 
so, I shall probably ask you to kindly let me have the 
negatives upon my next trip to V/ashington so that I can 
have some photographs made suitable for framing. I hope 
to be up there next June or July, and hope to see you at 
that time. 
V/ith all good wishes and trusting that I shall soon 
have the pleasure of seeing your article on the National 
Geographic, I am 
Very sincerely yours.
