On back or another envelope I asked for a dozen each of large and small 
franked envelopes. This is just a repeat of that re(^uest.

Dear Miss McCain: 
\ Dr. Longley is most anxious to have that Curacao book, and wonH 
you try to borrow a copy through the library, from L.C. if necessary, in 
my name for about a month, or better two months and send it to me here 
^ at Tortugas registered mail . official channels, and what not. If you can 
do this promptly we can have it down on the next regular mail trip. 
The book is "Rapport betreffende een voorloopig onderzoek naar 
\ den Toestand van de Vischerij en de Industrie von Zeeproducten in de 
\ Kolonie Curacao uitgebracht door Prof. Dr. J. Boeke, Gravenhage '1919', 
I 1920.',' 
In this work appeared Miss Rathbun's paper on Crustacea of the 
Dutch West Indies and the paper we particularly want by Metzler on the 
Fishes of Curacao. Please see that they give you the right volume 
with the fish paper. 
I Our copy didn't get back on the shelf or side tracked in 62. 
\ Anyway don't bother looking any more but beg, borrow, steal, or scare up 
another somewhere. Longley will iijc buy a new one if it gets lost. 
■^incer^y.
