Dear Dr. Morrison: 
lour last letter irifiicated that you were winding up 
your work so that you may indeed be on your way before this letter 
reaches you. Assuming that the main job is now completed I want 
you to pack up and come north as soon as practicable. In connection 
with this I wrote you earlier to take a little time at the adjacent 
place that you mention in order to get some comparative material. Go 
ahead and do this but finish up as soon as you can at the main base where 
you have been working. 
Bill who met us when we first landed came through 
yesterday and I had a good visit with him. 
Did I write you that the chap that managed the trucks 
was also through here? 
I have been doing some work on the birds and have found 
some interesting things. It will be good to see all of your collections 
back here as I know that there are some grand things among your specimens. 
You have a considerable problem in packing for shipment I know but get on 
with it as expeditiously as you can. 
In one of my earlier letters I said something about 
getting some more pelicans. If you have not had time for that let it go 
as we may have opportunity to pick up some more some other time. 
Sincerely yours. 
A. Wetmore, 
Acting Secretary.
