Dear Dr. Schmitt: 
You have salved my conscience. I will hold up on the 
film. I have most of it labelled. The only part that is not done 
are the individual shots I cut out of the rolls for the lecture I 
gave before the Atlantic Estuarine Research Society. I started 
to put them back into the proper rolls but it became such an awk- 
ward process of searching 1 decided to simply label each one and 
not try to put them back with the proper rolls. 1 certainly will 
be able to come to V/ashington with the film in the fall. 
I have finished developing all of the black and white 
rolls and have printed a few. The enclosed prints are just a few 
I did for an Estuarine Bulletin article. The carbon copy of the 
enclosed manuscript is essentially what has been written for the 
Bulletin . I hope you will find it satisfactory and interesting. 
1 was quite pleased with the results I got with the Pantatomic-Z 
film. 
I am enclosing a check to cover a refund of mone^^ along 
with a statement of receipts and expenditures. 
Receipts 
Expenditures 
|i75»00 - advance at Miami 
22.61 - refund from 
Eastern Airline 
$97.61 - Total 
$ 73.30 - color film development 
6.66 - excess baggage charge 
1. 90 - meals 
$36.36 - Total 
Refund to Srnithsonian-Bredin account of $10.75 - by check to 
Waldo Schmitt. 
The difference in cost per roll for color development 
on the two receipts is $1.10 for the rolls 1 sent from Cozumel. 
These were received before the price of development went up to 
$ 1 . 40 . The rolls I brought back with me were developed at the 
higher price. 
If I may make a suggestion: — have Harald send the two 
crates of fish up here as is and I will process them and send to 
him some kind of an accounting — at least numbers of species and 
individuals. Later I will send duplicates back to the museum. 
I have had a request from the National Museum of Canada, through Ed, 
asking for a representative sample of fish for their collections.
