To Mr. Miller: 
I have to request that you will receive 
4 
from the Registrar all packages containing zoolog¬ 
ical specimens collected by the Smithsonian Riolog- 
ft 
ioal Survey of Panama, prepare all the necessary 
accession-memoranda, and see that the different 
classes of specimens are sent to the several divis¬ 
ions to which they belong accompanied by accession- 
cards. The whole of any lot of material received 
on a given day by the Registrar and sent to you 
shoxild constitute one accession. 
I will ask‘you to give personal attention to 
the matter of obtaining accession cards from the 
Registrar promptly, and sending each class of spec- 
imens with a card to the proper division. It may be 
necessary in some oases to send perishable material 
to the division in advance of the receipt of acoes- 
s ion cards. In such instances, a note should be 
•\w JC* Hk <4 
made of the transaction, and cards sent as soon as
