Prof. Alejandro Mendez P. , 
Director del Museo Nacional, 
Panama, R. de P. 
Dear Prof. Mendez: 
Your friendly letter of 29 December relative to the 
fossil explorations at Ocu came duly to hand and has been 
much appreciated. I am looking forward with great interest 
to the results of these studies. 
Dr. Gazin has written me telling me of his friendly 
reception from you and from the Minister of Education, Don 
Max Arosemena. I understand from his letter that all 
arrangements have been made and I presume that the party 
by now is in the field. 
I will see you myself soon after the first week in 
February as I have my arrangements now complete so that 
I will be able to get away for another visit to Panama. I 
will call^you when I arrive in Panama City. 
Looking forward to seeing you, I am 
Sincerely yours, 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
