Dear Dr. Schmitt: 
Your letter of the 14th vdth the ^yimended request in r6 
a Wasseimian test came? I am afraid > too late. I received a direct let- 
ter from Mr. Sv/ett which was in effect an invitation to come and settle 
on the‘*Velero** on arriving at Los Angeles^ and when I replied thanhing 
him? I enclosed for Dr. Palmer the report on the blood type (/j^4, Moss methoa) . 
There is not time enough to get the other attended to now* It wouici only 
be a f oriaalityj anyhow. I had already had the uidnalysis exa^mination in 
connection with a general exanination by my physician at the time I had ty- 
phoid injactionsj and have asked him to mail a transcript on to meet me* 
I hope that this will be enougn. 
At Berkeley I will stay Yvith 3. C. Brooks, and at Staii- 
forcl with L.n.Biinks; the first, 22-23, the second, 24-26; tnen I will be at 
the meetings at Asilomar, a Y.W.G.A* hotel near Pacific Grove, for the 27“28tn. 
Prof. G.V. Taylor is no relation, but an acquainta.nce of 
pleasant Tortugas days. I will undoubtedly be aoie to give your message- 
I entirely understand the dark-room situation, mid v/ili ioiiow your advice* 
My equipment, consisting of one carton and two boxes, has supposedly aepd.itea, 
express prepaid* I will send one little trunk checked on my tlcxet, but may 
have to re-ckeck from 
Los 
I can hardly get tnere before the 29th. 
Unless I find sometiiing amiss, I will not write again, aiid will expect to 
keep our appointment on the Veierol 
I € 
Sine or ely,
