Dear Mr, Learson: 
/ J 
I have just checked over Mr* Adams 1 color pictures# 
Mention of them, if possible, should he run into my list of fishes 
in the following places: 
Under species No* 6*Wahoo * * * * line 2, after M saved, H 
put semicolon instead of period and add, M the latter specimen 
color photographed b y Mr* Frederick Adams#* 1 
Under species No# 12, Rainbow Runner * # # , line 1, 
after M August 1, H insert {i 4olor photographed by Mr* Adams * 11 
Under species No# 13, Jack-Crevally * * * f line 2, 
after^July 21 li insert #olor photographed by Mr. Adams* H 
Under species No* 14, Blue Crevally * * * , line 1, 
after i{ Cocos Island, !f insert ,f Oolor photographed by Mr* Adams J 
I hope that this can b© done, in order to give Mr# 
Adams credit for what he has given us in the way of color pictures. 
When you insert there additions to the fish list, be sure that the 
quotation marks are dropped# They are just used above to set off 
the words that I would like to have inserted# If I am too late 
with these extra notes, no ham is done# 
Thank you again for all that you are doing for me in 
getting the list published. My best to you# 
Sincerely, 
t<- dUrr'2-^
