Mr. Ratibor Hartmann,

Balboa, Canal Zone. 
Dear Tibor: 
The Friday after 1 saw you last I drove Colonel Potter 
and his son out to Pec ora. La Jagua and Chico, la the after¬ 
noon we went up the Pec ora River but found the road closed 
before we got to the pass between Cerro Azul and Carbunco, 
Apparently this has not been opened since last year. To that 
point the road was fairly good. Saturday 1 was busy all day 
and then Sunday morning* at 3:00 a.m. left on the plane for 
the north. I changed planes at Miami and then came through 
reaching Washington that afternoon. 
Our collections and equipment reached the National 
Museum two days ago. The skins have now been unpacked and 
arranged, and we are now getting them in order for cataloging. 
My supposition that some of the forms were going to be new to 
science is being verified as I have already picked out several. 
Everything has arrived in good shape so far as we have unpacked. 
My photographs have come out very well. Some time during 
the summer 1 will send you a few as soon as I have time to get 
them catalogued. The expedition has been highly successful 
and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I appreciate greatly your help and 
companionship in the work as well as that of Yaroslav. I pre¬ 
sume that he has returned by now to Chiriqujf. 
Let me hear from you as I should like to know how the 
survey that you are making with Dr. Clark proceeds.

With kindest regards, I am 
i Sincerely yours. 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
