Dear Mr. Sivettj 
I iiate to bother you about tiiose pictures our editoi* would liice to 
hava for the Explorations Paiaphlet, but he has ju.' t tol d tae over the telephone 
that the Paaiihlet is complete except for the pictures that are to accoiupfcaiy siy 
few worcs regai'ding last year’s ti’ip. Can you send me contact prints of those 
of which I sent you the ei-ilargements, .ana Ccn you do it by return aii‘ mail? 
If you will be Kind enough to send tiiose half dosen or ao pictures, I sidll have 
the Institution reimburse you for tiie postage expended. The matter is urgent 
end I should like to have them by Tuesday or F/edaesday if possible. Failing 
of that, the eoitor will have to use some of ay prints wliich I don’t consider 
as gooa and timely as yours, but the forma must be closed for the printer as 
soon as possible. 
iit tiiis time liwo'old liice bo refer to the matter aentioned in your 
note of December 8, I believe that John G&rtli thoroughly understands arrange- 
ments that were made regarding the crabs, Ke is endeavoring to work theai up, 
but the national ?iSuseu»ii is to get a first set of specimens, with a reaeKinable 
study series of each species. Miss Keti;bun has bem identifying the trouble- 
some things for him and in a measure is collaborating most actively on the 
different parts of tiie 'working up of the crabs. Surely it will work out satis- 
facboi'lly. 
The matter of types in my receiit letter was a provision that is often 
made by us in connection with expeditions, and I felt it was one tiiat you and 
tlj-e Captain shoula exercise in connection witii ell collections made by the 
Velcro* The types, after all, will be the more valuable part of the speci- 
mens. It is the Captain’s right and privilege to dispose of the^^e as he sees 
fit, as he is sponsor of the expeaitioa, and these siio'uld go to some pennmieat 
enduring collection where things of this sort mtb given the best of care. That 
is largely the reason that I h&ve suggested tlie National Musoua as a proper 
place for this sort of thing. 
loi'give me for being in such a rasl’i about the pictures, but the editor 
is most anxious to get tliat manuscript off his hands.
